| Naming Notes | The name comes from the children's book: The BFG (Big Friendly Giant), where there is a lot to discover about the giant and overall, he turns out to be very kind. This is similar to this phage, as its plaques are very small, but also very interesting to analyze, with a lot to discover. It also seemed funny since its plaques are in reality opposite to being large. |
