| Discovery Notes | Soil sample taken from Sarah Davis garden (on the David Davis mansion), which dates back to 1871. The garden is located in a fairly urban area, in close proximity to footpaths and sample is located close to other plants. The soil was taken from about 9 cm deep and the soil itself is dark and moist.
*Phage isolated using Direct Plating technique |
| Naming Notes | The name originates from the genus of the plant that the sample was taken from. |
