| Discovery Notes | Four garden samples were swabbes to test for the presence of phage: Soil, Tomato plant, Grass, and Goat Cheese. Each sample was placed onto its own quadrant of a single agar plate. Some regions of the quadrant ended up running off and mixing with each other, possibly due to condensation in the plate, a superplaque forming, or some of the lyseate running off as the plate was transported to the incubator. A region of this combined zone of multiple different samples was picked for isolation. |
| Naming Notes | Plaque was picked from a zone on a plate where mixing between three different phage samples had occurred (the plate was divided into quarters, one with each soil sample, but condensation on the plate created a streak where three of the regions were mixed) |
