Surface-to-volume scaling and aspect ratio preservation in rod-shaped bacteria
Rod-shaped bacterial cells can readily adapt their lengths and widths in response to environmental changes. While many recent studies have focused on the mechanisms underlying bacterial cell size control, it remains largely unknown how the coupling between cell length and width results in robust con...
