Abstract
The relationship of type 51 refractile (R) bodies to R bodies produced by Pseudomonas taeniospiralis was investigated. Proteins associated with type 51 R bodies were not serologically cross-reactive with proteins associated with R bodies from P. taeniospiralis. The genetic determinants for type 51 R bodies did not exhibit close homology with DNA sequences from P. taeniospiralis.
