| Discovery Notes | LeeShang was discovered in September, from moist loamy soil at George Mason University. The soil was collected in the morning, at about 0900 hours, at 72 degrees Fahrenheit. I discovered Lee Shang after three failed attempts. Notwithstanding, after a torrential downpour, I made another attempt on our campus's garden area (innovation garden). I dug about 7-8cm below ground level and finally got successful with my discovery of Lee Shang. My very own bacteriophage. |
| Naming Notes | My gordonia phage is called "Lee Shang". This is one of my alias I developed in high school. As my phage is truly an extension of me, I decided to make it personal bestowing on it one of my own names. |
