Abstract: During DNA replication, small fragments of DNA are formed. These have been observed
experimentally and the mechanism of their formation modelled mathematically. Using the
stochastic model of Cowan and Chiu (1992, 1994), we find the probability distribution of
the number of fragments. A new discrete distribution arises. The work has interest as an
application of the recent theory on quasi-renewal equations in Piau (2000).
