| Discovery Notes | Our sample was collected by a flowerbed next to grass on Gonzaga University's campus. We picked that specific spot since it was close to a flowerbed, which was different from the other sample spots chosen. As a whole, we would like to discover a new phage in order to advance bacteriophage research efforts. |
| Naming Notes | We named our phage Ethel because we see it as an old lady, meaning that our phage always produces results, but never above and beyond. |
