Abstract

Random delays in cell division lead to correlations between the generation times of mothers and their daughters and to a difference between the 'real' and the 'artificial' distributions of generation times. At present there is no satisfactory relation between the two distributions although both are useful in the analysis of growth. In a special case, it is shown that they are similar as long as the coefficient of variation of generation times is small.

摘要

细胞分裂中的随机延迟导致母细胞与其子代的世代时间之间产生相关性，并导致世代时间的“真实”分布与“人为”分布之间存在差异。目前，尽管这两种分布在生长分析中都很有用，但它们之间没有令人满意的关系。在一种特殊情况下，结果表明，只要世代时间的变异系数较小，它们就是相似的。
