Discovery NotesMy soil didn't have the nutrients required to create phages with my host bacteria, thus I adopted a phage. The weather was chilly when the adopted soil was collected. The soil contained worms and looked rich. There were also roots in this soil.
Naming NotesMy first phage name was taken, and at the time I wanted to live in a utopia, thus I chose this name.

Plaque NotesMy phage measured at 0.1 cm or 1 mm. This phage had a clear edge and a clear center making it a lytic phage. The TEM image helped me classify my phage as a Siphoviridae. This is due to the flexible tail and an icosahedral head.
