Characterizing non-exponential growth and bimodal cell size distributions in fission yeast: An analytical approach.

Unlike many single-celled organisms, the growth of fission yeast cells within a cell cycle is not exponential. It is rather characterized by three distinct phases (elongation, septation, and reshaping), each with a different growth rate. Experiments also showed that the distribution of cell size in...
