After revision:  The results are in quantitative agreement with the predictions of the incremental model , which leads to the ]. Nevertheless, even though cells born smaller have a longer G1, the compensation is imperfect and they still bud at smaller cell sizes. In bacteria, several recent studies have shown that the incremental model of size control, in which size is controlled by addition of a constant volume ( up to fluctuations), independent of size at birth, between birth and division;
