  • phenomenon by which a temperate phage integrates itself into the DNA of a bacterial host, establishing a type of symbiotic relation between prophage and bacterium which results in the perpetuation of the prophage in all the descendants of the bacterium; upon induction by various agents, such as chemicals or ultraviolet radiation, the phage is released, which then becomes virulent and lyses the bacterium.
