Does anyone know if phage species SP-8 infects Bacillus cereus? It will
not infect Bacillus megaterium, Bacillus subtilus, or Bacillus
thuringiensis. Also, the phage I have
isolated is thermally sensitive. It will not form plaques on a host
lawn of Bacillus cereus if the plates are incubated above 32C. I am
hitting a brick wall identifying this phage. If anyone can help, I
would appreciate it. I have micrographs of it if that will help.
