Interphase involves DNA replication whereas interkinesis does not.

Explanation:

Interkinesis is a period of rest that cells of some species enter during meiosis I and meiosis II. During interkinesis the single spindle of the first meiotic division disassembles and the microtubules reassemble into two new spindles for the second meiotic division. Interkinesis follows telophase. It is similar to interphase except that DNA replication does not occur because the chromosomes are already duplicated.

Interphase is the longest of cell cycle and consists of three stages - the Gap 1, Synthesis, and Gap 2 phase.
