| Naming Notes | TabularGherkin is an anagram of two inspirational teachers of the discoverers. For one, Harbanuk, really helped inspire biology as an ideal career to pursue, and the other, Gitler made biology a fun thing to learn, inspiring for future years. The anagram was initially put through an anagram maker, and came up with three options, two would not be acceptable names for a phage, so we chose the rectangular pickle. |
