Abstract

The exact mechanisms of growth and division in bacterial cells (further, bacterial cell is referred to as bacterium to avoid confusion with a cell in cellular automata) is not clear so far. Investigations in the field are focused on studying the process in the bacteria of Escherichia coli (E.coli) [59, 100].
