To archive a phage is to send the titer of our phage that we created to a lab that has many different phages. This place has phages that have had there genome sequenced and their cluster known.
The results that we would have expected to see if the phage was lysogenic is that the plaques will have a halo around the plaque and that it will have different properties.
What are some of the limitations of your experiment that aided your decision in your future directions?
Some of the limitations are that we ran out of time and that our lab didn’t have access to sequencing DNA
What specifically can the titer be used for in future experiments
The titer can be used to plate our phage on different lawns to see what other bacteria that the phage can infect.
