The working hypothesis ... is that the bacteriophage is either a
definite stage in the cyclogeny of the bacterial species, or a
functionally active particle accessory to one of these stages; and
by the term "accessory" I mean possessing complementary or
reciprocal biologic significance, such, for example, as the
relation of sperm cell to ovum. With such a conception there is not
any priority of significance in the relation between bacteriophagic
corpuscle and the cell which it "attacks." Both elements are
necesary components of a definite reproductive mechanism possessed
by many, if not all, bacteria. This constitutes the nucleus of what
I have termed my "homogamic theory" of bacteriophage action. PHILIP
