- Ontology or CV name
- Phenotype
- Definition
- A cell morphology phenotype in which a vegetatively growing cell is elongated, is curved along the long axis to form a \"C\" shape, and contains cytoplasmic microtubules that are longer than normal and curved. In a curved cell, the long axis follows a smooth bend rather than a straight line. In a C-shaped cell, the curve is centered at the midpoint of the long axis of the cell. Microtubules curve around the ends of the cell and may become long enough to form loops.
