| Discovery Notes | This soul sample was collected in an urban region, in my backyard garden, and in an area of light foot traffic. The ground is flat and it is in an enclosed region far from roads and water but close to trees. |
| Naming Notes | I chose the name "RomaT" because I found the soil sample in my tomato garden and Roma is a type of tomato! |
