Transcript:

Dear Lederberg :

[Phi].10.174 acts on my H, not on B. It is a typoid phage. I have not tested cross-resistance on H.

Bandet[?] small acts on my R, not on B+ It acts on all R/T, and R/Bts is sensitive to all T.

Bandet large has same host range as T1.

C36 acts on all coli stocks I have tested, including all B/T. I could not get any B/36.

T16 does not act on B/6, nor on B/7, but all other G/T are sensitive.

Al H.
