Discovery Notes | This phage was discovered from a soil source about 20 yards away from the entrance to the Nordenberg Residence Hall. The soil in which it was discovered was extremely soft and contained very small soil particles; the soil was also slightly moist and shaded by surrounding vegetation (weeds, grasses) and buildings. |
Naming Notes | I decided to name this phage "Forza" because "forza" translates to "strength" in Italian. My family is Italian, and I wanted to dedicate the name to my family's heritage. |
