population growth phenotype resistance to stress phenotype 2017-06-21T14:34:05Z A population growth phenotype related to the resistance or sensitivity that microbes in a population show when exposed to a stress. Typically, a population is deemed resistant to a stress if microbes in the population continue to grow and multiply when exposed to the stress. A population is deemed sensitive to a stress if microbes in the population stop growing and multiplying (and may die) when exposed to the stress. OMP:0007568 This is a high-level term whose primary purpose is to organize terms beneath it in the ontology, and we recommend that it not be used for direct annotation. Please consider using a more specific term to annotate each phenotype. Use a descendant of this term if you have assayed growth of cells exposed to a stress in culture. If you have assayed the response to a stress at the subcellular or molecular level, consider annotating to one of the descendants of 'response to stress phenotype' (OMP:0000173). dsiegele microbial_phenotype resistant to a stress sensitive to a stress
