Cell length reduction during deep starvation. a Phase contrast images of B. subtilis ΔspoIIE cells in the beginning (day 0), and after 14 days of incubation in starvation buffer. Scale bar is 2 µm. b Average cell length. Average and standard deviation from three independent experiments are depicted. Approximately 100 cells were measured for every condition
