Plants, 2020 Fruit size and shape are important qualities and yield traits in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.), but the factors that influence fruit size and shape remain to be explored. In this study, we investigated the dynamic changes of fruit size and shape from the

Temperature Responses of Heterotrophic Bacteria in Co-culture With a Red Sea Synechococcus Strain
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Interactions between autotrophic and heterotrophic bacteria are fundamental for marine biogeochemical cycling. How global warming will affect the dynamics of these essential microbial players is not fully understood.

Identification of transcriptional and metabolic programs related to mammalian cell size [PDF]
, 2014 Background Regulation of cell size requires coordination of growth and proliferation. Conditional loss of cyclin-dependent kinase 1 in mice permits hepatocyte growth without cell division, allowing us to study cell size in vivo using transcriptomics and ...

How Metabolic Rate Relates to Cell Size
, 2022 SIMPLE SUMMARY: The metabolic conversion of resources into living structures and processes is fundamental to all living systems. The rate of metabolism (‘fire of life’) is critical for supporting the rates of various biological processes (‘pace of life’),

Current Biology, 2021 A fundamental and still mysterious question in cell biology is "How do cells know how big they are?". The fact that they do is evident from the strict maintenance of size homeostasis within populations of cells and has been verified by a variety of creative experiments over the past 100 years.

Cell Cycle Arrest by Supraoptimal Temperature in the Alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
Cells, 2019 Temperature is one of the key factors affecting growth and division of algal cells. High temperature inhibits the cell cycle in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 To accommodate surplus energy, the adipose tissue expands by increasing adipocyte size (hypertrophy) and number (hyperplasia). The presence of hypertrophic adipocytes is a key characteristic of adipose tissue dysfunction. High-fat diet (HFD) fed C57BL/6J

Revisiting the hypothesis of an energetic barrier to genome complexity between eukaryotes and prokaryotes [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2020 The absence of genome complexity in prokaryotes, being the evolutionary precursors to eukaryotic cells comprising all complex life (the prokaryote–eukaryote divide), is a long-standing question in evolutionary biology.

Cell cycle length, cell size, and proliferation rate in hydra stem cells [PDF]
, 1990 We have analyzed the cell cycle parameters of interstitial cells in Hydra oligactis. Three subpopulations of cells with short, medium, and long cell cycles were identified. Short-cycle cells are stem cells; medium-cycle cells are precursors to nematocyte

Extending the Monod model of microbal growth with memory
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Monod’s model describes the growth of microorganisms using a hyperbolic function of extracellular resource concentration. Under fluctuating or limited resource concentrations this model performs poorly against experimental data, motivating the more ...
