Replicon

A replicon is a DNA molecule or RNA molecule, or a region of DNA or RNA that replicates from a single origin of replication.For most prokaryotic chromosomes, the replicon is the entire chromosome. The only exceptions found comes from archaea, where two Sulfolobus species have been shown to contain three replicons. Plasmids and bacteriophages are usually replicated as single replicons, but large plasmids in Gram-negative bacteria have been shown to carry several replicons (Thomas 2000, p. 3).

Rep·li·con n. A genetic element that undergoes replication as an autonomous unit. [more]Replicon - Community and Resources

A unit of genetic material which behaves autonomously during replication of DNA. In bacterias, a whole chromosome is a replicon. In eukaryotes, chromosomes are divided into hundreds of replicons. Each replicon contains a segment beginning with a binding site for RNA polymerase.
