Discovery Notes | The phage 'Coquette' was discovered in Vondelpark in Amsterdam, Netherlands. The park has a lot of plant life and greenery. The soil has a moist and crumbly brownie-like consistency. |
Naming Notes | This phage is named 'Coquette' because the definition of 'coquette' is one who flirts with no intention of establishing a relationship. When working with this phage, I felt that everything was fun and easy (the flirting), but I did not discover anything new or novel (not establishing a relationship). In modern terms, 'coquette' is an aesthetic that is fun, feminine, and all about enjoying life; like Amsterdam, Coquette's place of origin, this phage also meets its modern definition as it was really fun to work with and helped me make a lot of friends along the way. :) |
