Question

define temperate phage???

Answer 1

In virology, temperate refers to the ability of some bacteriophages (notably coliphage λ) to display a lysogenic life cycle. Many (but not all) temperate phages can integrate their genomes into their host bacterium's chromosome, together becoming a lysogen as the phage genome becomes a prophage

It is a bacteriophage that displays lysogenic life cycle in contrast to virulent phage that does not have the ability to display lysogeny especially following mutation.
