| Discovery Notes | We adopted our phage from Malcolm Canaday, who discovered it at the above location and was generous enough to donate it when we were unable to successfully isolate our own phage. The soil sample was collected at 9:00 AM MT on January 25, 2023. The temperature was 0°C and the soil was damp. |
