| Detailed Information for Phage LittleHoudini | |
| Discovery Information | |
| Isolation Host | Microbacterium foliorum NRRL B-24224 |
| Found By | Georgia Matheson |
| Year Found | 2018 |
| Location Found | Cullowhee, NC USA |
| Finding Institution | Western Carolina University |
| Program | Science Education Alliance-Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science |
| From enriched soil sample? | Yes |
| Isolation Temperature | 30°C |
| GPS Coordinates | 35.302778 N, 83.183611 W Map |
| Discovery Notes | Sample taken from the surface of the soil just underneath running water in Cullowhee Creek. |
| Naming Notes | The name "LittleHoudini" came from the disappearing act that the phage performed during discovery. When growing a new batch of bacteria to use in our discovery/characterization experiments, the phage revealed a great sensitivity to a change in the type of peptone and disappeared for a while until the bacteria was grown the original way(or at least close to it). |
