Annotating Institution | Unknown or unassigned |
Annotation Status | In GenBank |
Plaque Notes | Plaque morphology ranged from 1mm-3mm depending on the concentration of phage particles. The plaques were clear and circular. No special features were noted except the phage propensity towards tiny, almost indistinguishable pinprick plaques and their infuriatingly slow growth rate. |
Morphotype | Siphoviridae |
Number of Genes | 97 |
Number of tRNAs | 2 |
Number of tmRNAs | 0 |
Has been Phamerated? | Yes |
