How does a hypha grow? The biophysics of pressurized growth in fungi
RR Lew - Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2011 - nature.com
The mechanisms underlying the growth of fungal hyphae are rooted in the physical property
of cell pressure. Internal hydrostatic pressure (turgor) is one of the major forces driving the …

Codon usage is an important determinant of gene expression levels largely through its effects on transcription
Codon usage biases are found in all eukaryotic and prokaryotic genomes, and preferred
codons are more frequently used in highly expressed genes. The effects of codon usage on …
