A bacteriophage containing DNA and which is active on Caulobacter vibrioides CV6 has been shown to attach to the flagellum of the motile cell type. Attachment to the flagellum appears to be a necessary preliminary step to irreversible attachment to the cell wall at the base of the flagellum. The possible use of such a phage in the study of cellular differentiation in this diphasic bacterium is suggested.
