Strand

Double-strand ends, such as those recognized by recBCD, occur as a direct result of some types of DNA damage. They are also found at the ends of some phage DNAs.

The leading strand is the DNA strand at the opposite side of the replication fork from the lagging strand. It goes from 3' to 5' (these numbers indicate the position of the molecule in respect to the carbon atoms it contains).

Strand
It is customary in genetics to use strand for chromatid. It has therefore been used in that sense in some books, where it has also been used for one double-chain (that is, duplex) DNA molecule.
