This is why we use confocal #microscopy to type mitochondria @mrccmm.bsky.social #MYCOscopy
Left image is a 4D projected confocal stack of mitochondria, that would represent a typical widefield image. Middle represents a single confocal Z slice in the hypha.

Useful MYCOscopy approach to measuring hyphal growth (without having to segment the entire filament per frame) TrackMate used to Track the change in area over time.
