Modeling the START transition in the budding yeast cell cycle
Fig 5
Cell size as a function of growth rate in budding yeast.
The blue curve connecting red circles shows cell size (mass) at division at specific mass doubling times (MDT) from 90–300 min (30 min interval) and corresponding specific growth rates (ln2/MDT) from START-BYCC simulations. This curve shows the same trend as the experimental graph in Lord and Wheals (1980), where median cell volumes for populations are plotted at different growth rates.
