Influence of stress and antibiotic resistance on cell-length distribution in Mycobacterium tuberculosis clinical isolates.

Mycobacterial cellular variations in growth and division increase heterogeneity in cell length, possibly contributing to cell-to-cell variation in host and antibiotic stress tolerance. This may be one of the factors influencing Mycobacterium tuberculosis persistence to antibiotics. Tuberculosis (TB)...
