A phage, designated PBA12, has been isolated from the soil and found to be virulent on Bacillus subtilis (var. amyloliquefaciens). PBA12 has a large cylindrical head that is 100 nm long and 35 nm in diameter and a tail that is 200 nm in length. The phage contains double-stranded DNA and demonstrates chloroform sensitivity. The processes of both adsorption and replication appear to be slow and inefficient.
一种名为PBA12的噬菌体已从土壤中分离出来，并发现它对枯草芽孢杆菌（淀粉液化型变种）具有毒性。PBA12有一个大的圆柱形头部，长100纳米，直径35纳米，还有一条长200纳米的尾部。该噬菌体含有双链DNA，并表现出对氯仿敏感。吸附和复制过程似乎都很缓慢且效率低下。
