Discovery NotesThe sample was collected from the side of a relatively clear lake on the morning of August 29th. The location was a few feet off from a rough path, which divided the water body from a steep hill. The soil was moist due to contact with the lake water (similar to damp silt), and the sample was taken within 2 inches of the surface.
Naming NotesThe name of the phage is a reference to the discoverer's mother and birth nations. It is a concatenation of the former's first three letters and the acronym of the latter.
