What is the kind of covalent linkage which joins adjacent nucleosides in the same strand of DNA?

Adjacent nucleosides in DNA are joined by phosphodiester bonds, which are covalent bonds between the phosphate group of one nucleoside and the sugar group of another nucleoside. These bonds create the sugar-phosphate backbone of the DNA strand.
