Threshold effect of growth rate on population variability of Escherichia coli cell lengths

A long-standing question in biology is the effect of growth on cell size. Here, we estimate the effect of Escherichia coli growth rate (r) on population cell size distributions by estimating the coefficient of variation of cell lengths (CV(L)) from image analysis of fixed cells in DIC microscopy. We...
