Evidence for a bimodal distribution of <it>Escherichia coli </it>doubling times below a threshold initial cell concentration
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>In the process of developing a microplate-based growth assay, we discovered that our test organism, a native <it>E. coli </it>isolate, displayed very uniform doubling times (τ) only up to a certain threshold cell density....
