| Discovery Notes | This phage was discovered using an 8+ control label plate with Gordonia terrae. The phage from this sample made a large bean-shaped plaque on the 8+ control plate. The sample was not one that I had personally collected. It was collected from a compost pile that was damp, moist, and rich in nutrients. |
| Naming Notes | Laufer originated from the German word for "runner." Running is something that is important to me so I decided to name my phage something that I valued. I have German heritage in my family so I decided to use a word in German. |
