| Discovery Notes | Soil came from potting plants we used for our plants this potting soil we got from home depot. And it has all sorts of nutrition to make the plants grow and make it grow at a steady pace. This is ideal for microbial diversity since this has a lot of nutrients in it, the soil is moist from watering the plants the night before and but by the morning time the soil had hardened just a little. I used a digger and reached about 2-3 inches before extracting underneath the soil. ANd I used about ½ a pound in a bag. The soil is also mixed with normal soil from the ground so its a mixture of potting soil and natural soil from the ground. The soil sample is dark has some rocks and grass and also has these bits of green and pink pieces mostly from the soil underneath. |
| Naming Notes | I got my name from a movie character the movie is called "Bhool Bulaiaya" and one of the character in the movie is who I named my phage after. |

| Plaque Notes | Based on the TEM of my phage my phage seems to be Siphoviridae because the tail is relatively longer than Myoviridae and Podoviridae. Siphoviridae have a general morphology they have a general morphology that consists of an icosahedral head and a long noncontractile flexible tail.This phage is Lytic because clear plaques, 2mm diameter, and to obtain this phage I did 2 rounds of purification |
