Once the viral dna has been inserted into the cell, the host is now said to be infected. However, no cell lysis occurs in the lysogenic cycle. The viral dna is integrated into the host genome in the lysogenic cycle. These cycles should not, however, be seen as separate, but rather as somewhat interchangeable.
