| Sequencing Information | |
| Sequencing Complete? | No |
| Genome length (bp) | Unknown |
| Character of genome ends | Unknown |
| Fasta file available? | No |
| Characterization | |
| Cluster | K |
| Subcluster | K1 |
| Cluster Life Cycle | Temperate |
| Lysogeny Notes | This phage is a temperate phage due to the turbidity of the plaques it formed. The turbidity of the plaques results from the Phage DNA infecting the bacteria cells but not lysing them until the phage switches from a temperate life cycle to a lytic one. This phage occasionally showed signs of virulency on certain plates. |
| Annotating Institution | Unknown or unassigned |
| Annotation Status | Not sequenced |
| Plaque Notes | Wilota developed plaques which are relatively large and turbid. These plaques ranged in diameter from 2 to 5 millimeters and were uniformly round in shape. Due to the turbidity of the plaques formed, this phage is a temperate phage which showed signs of virulency in certain plates. |
