Abstract

Specific growth rate, specific rate of oxygen consumption calculated per unit cell mass and substrate consumption were followed during the (S + G2) phase of the cell cycle of Candida utilis, when the cell mass increase occurs due to bud growth. Scar-free cells and cells with one and more scars were investigated. Buds of the mother scar-bearing cells grew more slowly. Oxygen was used up at the same rate, whereas glucose was utilized more rapidly.
