Rod-shaped bacteria typically elongate and divide by transverse fission. However, several bacterial species can form rod-shaped cells that divide longitudinally. Here, we study the evolution of cell shape and division mode within the family
Neisseriaceae
, which includes Gram-negative coccoid and rod-shaped species. In particular, bacteria of...
