Category:OMP:0007717 ! decreased viability of vegetative microbial cell

name: decreased viability of vegetative microbial cell
def: "An altered microbial cell viability phenotype observed in the vegetative phase of the growth cycle where the viability of a vegetative microbial cell is decreased relative to a designated control." [OMP:das]
is_a: OMP:0007261 ! decreased cell viability
is_a: OMP:0007724 ! altered vegetative cell viability
comment: Note that if you have done an experiment that assays the viability of a population of microbial cells, such as looking at colony growth or growth in liquid culture, you should also annotate to 'inviable cell population' (OMP:xx) or one of its descendants.
