Extended Data Fig. 4: Cell shape is not substantially affected by ___location within macroscopic yeast.

From: De novo evolution of macroscopic multicellularity

Extended Data Fig. 4

a and b show cell volume and cell shape (aspect ratio) measured for 10 cells from the interior of a macroscopic cluster and 10 cells from the exterior of a cluster (measured in t600 macroscopic clusters). Average cell volume for exterior and interior are 110.8 µm3 and 113.1 µm3 (p = 0.88, t = 0.15 df = 17.55, Welch’s t-test), and average cell shape for exterior and interior are 2.9 and 2.8 (p = 0.51, t = 0.68, df = 14, Welch’s t-test). Individual measurements are marked as points, the mean and one standard deviation are indicated by the bar plot.
