| Discovery Notes | This phage was isolated from mulchy soil in the central garden circle of George Mason University's Liberty Square student dorm building. The soil sample was taken fairly close to the surface, roughly 1-2cm below the surface of the soil. |
| Naming Notes | Guilliman is the name of a character from the Warhammer 40K franchise. He is the leader of the faction that are the basic "poster boys" of the setting and franchise, with the faction being present on pretty much every piece of marketing for Warhammer 40K. Seeing as how this phage was isolated using the M. smegmatis host, which a great many other phages have also been isolated from, I thought naming this phage after the leader of the "basic" faction of one of my favorite franchises would be fitting. |
