| Naming Notes | This phage has been difficult at every step of the extracting process. First, it was hard to find, then difficult to purify, and lastly it did not have a high enough titer. Through my annoyance, I named it "pesky." This name is also kind of cute which mirrors the small plaque morphology. |
