| Naming Notes | Deliberation on this phage's name took quite some time. We had many ideas that already belonged to phages or had something similar to it. We knew we wanted something special since our phage appears to be exhibiting lysogeny. We finally settled on "Poltergeist" because we picked our phage from a ghost plaque. |
