Extended Data Fig. 5

a-c, The binned data trend (blue dots) of growth rate \((\frac{1}{L}\frac{{dL}}{{dt}})\) vs. age plots are shown for three individual replicates of Mtb data (n = 125, 116, 122, respectively). The binned data trend decreases with age and is largely consistent with the predicted trend obtained using simulations of linear growth (red line). d-f, The binned data trend (blue dots) of elongation speed vs. age plot is shown for the three replicates of Mtb data. The binned data trend is constant consistent with the predicted trend obtained using linear growth simulations. The error bars are presented as mean ± SEM.
