elongated vegetative cell T-shaped vegetative cell elongated T-shaped vegetative cell 2020-05-27T11:24:32Z One distinction between T-shaped and other branched cells is that in T-shaped cells the new growth zone forms before NETO. A T-shaped cell may septate perpendicular to the normal septation axis, and divide to form normal-shaped daughter cells. elongated T-shaped vegetative cell during mitotic cell cycle elongated T-shaped cell during vegetative growth midori long T-shaped vegetative cell FYPO:0007380 A cell morphology phenotype observed in the vegetative growth phase of the life cycle in which a cell is longer than normal, and a new growth zone forms along the lateral portion of the cell (often in the middle) before septation, such that a single cell grows in the form of the letter T.
