Characterization
ClusterG
SubclusterG1
Cluster Life CycleTemperate
Lysogeny NotesI thought I had multiple phages to begin with because there were multiple different sizes. As it turns out, my phage is Lytic and I kept examining it during a Lytic bursting cycle which made it appear to be many different phages of different size plaques.
