| Discovery Notes | Soil was very dry, and crumbly. The roots of the grass and rocks made for a slightly more difficult removal, as collection would take grass and rocks with the dirt. No precipitation had occurred. (580 ft Elevation) Soil sample was collected right outside of Florence Schneider Hall in Bowling Green, KY. Collection side was near a sidewalk and a pole. |
| Naming Notes | When I was small, I told my mother that I would name my first child "Hamdunkin". So, in honor of my great taste in names, the phage will be named "Hamdunkin". |
