Review: To bud until death: The genetics of ageing in the yeast
... Defining ageing in budding yeast is possible only because of the asymmetry of its cell cycle. The mother cell is usually larger than its newly budded daughter and can therefore be identified at the end of each cell division. This allowed Mortimer and Johnston2' in 1959 to show for the first time tha ...
