◦ It can only generate single-stranded copies, and many phage genomes are single-stranded.
◦ It is an efficient way to generate a large number of daughter molecules.
◦ It makes use of all the same proteins as bacterial chromosome replication but is faster.
◦ It simultaneously degrades bacterial chromosomal DNA.
◦ It allows transcription of phage genes to occur at the same time as they are replicated.
