| Naming Notes | I really like whales, so each soil sample attempts were named after species of whales. We finally found phage in 'Orca'. In the picture, it is named 'Killer' because it was originally named this after killer whales. Two research groups used this phage and to differentiate, we changed our name to 'Orca'. |
