Replication of single-stranded (SS) phage DNA proceeds by two mechanisms: discontinuous synthesis as observed with complementary-strand (−) synthesis (SS+→RF), where RF refers to replicative form, and continuous synthesis as observed with viral-strand (+) synthesis (RF→SS+). This paper deals with discontinuous synthesis and Eisenberg et al. (this volume) discusses continuous synthesis.
Meyer et al. (1979) studied this question.
