The [Formula: see text] theories of gravity are the most popular, simple and well-succeeded extension of Einstein’s General Relativity. They can account for some observational issues of standard cosmology with no need for evoking the dark sector of the universe. In the present paper, we will investigate LRS Bianchi type-I spacetime in [Formula: see text] gravity theory within the phantom energy-dominated era. We show that in this formalism the phantom energy-dominated universe is a transient stage and in the further stage of the universe dynamics, it is dominated, once again, by dark energy. Such an important feature is obtained from the model, rather than imposed to it, and may have a relation to loop quantum cosmology.
