when the DNA of a phage is transmitted to the host ,there is a temporary period of disappearance of infectivity. such period is called as bacteriophage
Explanation :
A bacteriophage, often known as a phage, is a virus that infects bacteria and archaea and replicates within them. The word "bacteria" was taken from the Greek word "to consume." Bacteriophages are made up of proteins that encase a DNA or RNA genome and can have either simple or complex structures. Their genomes can contain as few as four genes (for example, MS2) or as many as hundreds. Following the injection of their DNA into the bacteria's cytoplasm, phages reproduce within the bacterium.
