'Senescence in a Bacterium with asymmetric division.'
Ackermann et al.
They show that in bacteria with asymmetric divisions senescence is prevalent in only a subset of the offspring. Maybe specific subcellular localization of structures near the pole is related to this phenomenum.
Is asymmetric division than the evolutionary key to aging?
