Discovery NotesThis phage was found within the soil around a flowering bush in a city park. The sample was taken from underneath landscaping paper and an embedded rock. Both were removed and a sample was collected a half of an inch deep into the ground.
Naming NotesI named this phage after the Muppet. I have always loved the Muppets and my phage is quite large...just like the actual Sweetums.
