Revision of mathematical basis for the hyphoid curve

Filamentous microorganisms, for example, fungi, experience polarized growth that the elongated filamentous shape stems from intense growth activity occurred at the tip apex. Subsequently, examination on the geometry of the tip apex associated with its growth reveals relationship between physiologica...

description Filamentous microorganisms, for example, fungi, experience polarized growth that the elongated filamentous shape stems from intense growth activity occurred at the tip apex.
