| Discovery Notes | Soil sample collected .5 inch below the surface of tree root, damp soil. The day temperature was 72 degrees and sunny. |
| Naming Notes | The name came from one of Dani's friends. His last name, Patestes, reminded her of a disease or virus. She told him the first thing she discovers, she was going to name it after him. This bacteriophage was the first thing she discovered, so that's where the bacteriophage's name came from. |
