Hydrogen bonds. They are weak individually, but enough of them have some strength ( water, for instance ) through the are not strong enough to impede the splitting of the DNA molecule when a replicative process, for instance, needs preforming.

What holds DNA bases together?
The bonds of the atom are covalent where as the bonds between the base pairs are hydrogen.
What holds the two halves of a DNA double helix together?
Its Hydrogen Bonds that hold the two strands of the DNA double helix together.
What type of bond holds together the base pairs in a DNA helix?
Hydrogen Bonds are the bonds that hold the complimentary bases together. G to C and A to T. However the bonds that hold the nucleotides together on each side of the double helix are called Phosphodiester bonds or linkages.

Bond that holds ions together?
Yes,bonds hold ions together through strong electrostatic forces between the cations and anions.(in ionic bonds).
