| Isolation Host | Microbacterium foliorum NRRL B-24224 |
| Found By | Annika G Stecker |
| Year Found | 2020 |
| Location Found | Orange City, IA United States |
| Finding Institution | Northwestern College |
| Program | Science Education Alliance-Phage Hunters Advancing Genomics and Evolutionary Science |
| From enriched soil sample? | Unknown |
| Isolation Temperature | 28°C |
| GPS Coordinates | 43.0075 N, 96.055 W Map |
| Discovery Notes | The soil where this phage was found was dry and had no plants growing in it (pre-garden soil). The soil was collected at about 2 inches of depth. |
| Naming Notes | My brother's favorite book series is Alex Rider, and the first book of that series is called Stormbreaker. The 8 comes from the number of people in my family. Stormbreaker also fits the cloudy appearance of the plaque. |
