| Discovery Notes | This phage was isolated from mulch on the Mount Saint Mary College campus. |
| Naming Notes | I knew from the moment I collected my soil sample that I had something special. After isolating my phage, I realized that this may be my life's greatest work, and it therefore had to be named accordingly. Just as Beethoven's 9th Symphony, Da Vinci's Mona Lisa, and Lennon & McCartney's Sgt. Pepper are recognized for their grandeur in their respective fields, Zoutis' MagnumOpus will forever be remembered as a masterpiece of phage identification and archiving. |
