Stochastic processes influence stationary-phase decisions in Bacillus subtilis.

Abstract excerpt

It has recently been proposed that phenotypic variation in clonal populations of bacterial species results from intracellular "noise," i.e., random fluctuations in levels of cellular molecules, which would be predicted to be insensitive to selective pressure. To test this notion, we propagated fi...
