Discovery NotesTeenySue was discovered at Western Carolina University. The phage was found in soil that was collected from Cullowhee Creek. The sample was from the side of the creek that was not inside of the water. The soil was damp from when it had rained that morning.
Naming NotesThe name TeenySue was chosen because the plaques that the phage forms are teeny tiny, average size of 1 mm. The second part of the name, Sue, comes from my family. My grandmother's names were Susan, and one of my grandmothers, also, gave my mom the middle name of Sue. My mother's middle name was passed on to me. Therefore, I passed it onto my "child".
