| Discovery Notes | Found in a shaded forest area near a small pond in Kanata, Ontario. The soil sample was collected approximately 1.5 inches beneath the surface. Genomic DNA was sequenced on a ONT Minion, R10.4.1 chemistry using rapid barcoding V14 and PCR amplification. The longest read was 47,986bp with 87% query cover, 89.2% identity to phage Bumble (cluster FH). |
| Naming Notes | Named Sylvas after the Latin word silva, meaning “forest.” The name reflects where the sample was discovered and the phage’s origin in the hidden layers of forest soil. |
