Discovery NotesI dug 3 centimeters below ground and collected my sample. The site of collection is located really close to shrubbery. There is fairly low levels of foot traffic at the site. The site is located close to the building of Engineering and Biological Sciences at Western Kentucky University, but not close to the sidewalk or road. The site was covered by mulch and leaves. The soil was fairly dry, since I collected the sample when there had been a lack of rain. The temperature outside at the time of collection was 70 degrees Fahrenheit.
Naming NotesI named the phage after the Hemsworth brothers. They are Australian actors whom I look up to.
