Naming NotesPhage name was inspired by observed morphology during TEM imaging where the host bacterium showed a visible septum, suggesting it was undergoing cell division. FtsZ is a key bacterial cytoskeletal protein that assembles at the division site and drives septum formation, so it was chosen as the phage's name.
