Four of these C-specific phages produced mutants (hrk) able to grow on K cells. The K cells harbouring HK253hrk and HK183hrk were converted so that they could adsorb and be lysed by three other nonmutant C-specific phages. HK253, HK183 and two other phages were shown to recombine with phage lambda., UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/jgv/10.1099/0022-1317-67-12-2781
