Discovery Notes | The rather dry soil was collected under a tree with several other plants. There was a lot of roots and mulch surrounding it. In addition, it was next to a road with cars and right across from the Drexel Pizza. |
Naming Notes | I decided to choose a name that sounded and appeared scientific while at the same time having the "ph" in the beginning of the word. As such, I came up with the name "Phresis" as not only did it sound pretty cool, but also passed all my criteria of a good phage name. |
