Discovery NotesSample was found in an enriched soil patch around a decent amount of foliage. It was late afternoon in the middle of winter around 45 degrees F. The soil was cold, picked up with a plastic spoon, slightly moist, and had a relatively normal dirt texture.
Naming NotesThe name for this phage comes from Allie's pets named "Poptart". We both thought "HotPocket" was a good alternative because Poptart was already taken.
