| Abstract: | Distributions of rupture sites of fission yeast cells ruptured by glass beads have been related to a new morphometric analysis.
As shown previously (Johnson et al.,Cell Biophysics, 1995), ruptures were not randomly distributed nor was their distribution dictated by geometry, rather, ruptures at the extensile
end were related to cell length just as the rate of extension is related to cell length. The extension patterns of early log,
mid-log, late log, and stationary phase cells from suspension cultures were found to approximate the linear growth patterns
of Kubitschek and Clay (1986). The median length of cells was found to decline through the log phase in an unbalanced manner. |
