A scanning electron micrograph of Caulobacter crescentus cells at 10,000x magnification. Each cell division for C. crescentus is asymmetric, generating two distinct daughter cells: a motile swarmer cell and a sessile stalked cell. A systematic dissection of the signal transduction genes controlling cell cycle progression, growth, and morphogenesis is presented in Skerker et al.
