Schematic overview of the bacterial cell cycle. The bacterial cell cycle can be divided into B, C, pre-D and D phases constituting a defined order within one generation time. Under unlimited growth conditions, some bacterial species are capable of accelerating proliferation by uncoupling DNA synthesis from division. As a result, a new round of DNA replication is initiated before the completion of the previous round (Cooper [1991]; Müller et al. [2010]).
