Discovery NotesCollected on 8/22/25 outside of my house in Renton.
Properties: moist soil, some organic matter with plant debris, was collected below the organic layer (humus) about 1 inch down.
The temperature outside was 85 degrees F during the sunny afternoon.
Naming NotesThe soupy came from my name (Misa) because it reminded us of miso soup, and the D after came from Stephanie’s last name (Davis); the S in soupy and d after forms Stephanie’s initials. We added 67 because that is a number both of us like.

Plaque NotesThe plaques formed by SoupyD67 on a 10-7 concentration full plate titer done on 10/15/25 vary in size, the average size is 0.5 cm, which is a sign of the presence of more than one specific phage. There are 5 total plaques on this plate, all having a clear center and a turbid off-centered outer edge. All plaques were once the same size, but over time, some of them grew. This indicates there may be multiple kinds of phages present, one that grows faster (lytic) than the other (turbid)
