How does a hypha grow? The biophysics of pressurized growth in fungi

Key Points Turgor (hydrostatic pressure within the cell) is a major driving force for cell expansion in fungi and in other walled cells. It is created by the accumulation of solutes inside the cell. The thermodynamics of pressure, cell volume and solute uptake are complicated by the dynamic process...
