New elementary reaction channels rho+N(Delta) to phi+N and pi+N(1520) to phi+N are included. In spite of a substantial increase of the ϕmultiplicities by these channels the results stay below the tentative numbers extracted from experimental data.17 pages(LaTeX), two new figures addedNuclear TheorySubthreshold phi-meson production in heavy-ion collisionstext
