It has been possible to examine the correlation between the presence of phage-like particles and R bodies by using serial sections of kappas of stock 562. No exception has been found to the rule that 562 kappa particles with R bodies also have phage-like particles; however, 3 out of 78 kappa particles with phage-like particles lacked R bodies.
