name: single-celled organism vegetative growth phase

alt_id: GO:0062178
def: "A phase of population growth during which single celled organisms reproduce by budding, fission, or other asexual methods." [GOC:mah, GOV:vw]
comment: Note that this term should not be used for direct annotation. If you are trying to make an annotation to x phase, it is likely that the correct annotation is 'regulation of x/y phase transition' or to a process which occurs during the reported phase. To capture the phase when a specific location or process is observed, the phase term can be used in an annotation extension (PMID:24885854) applied to a cellular component term (with the relation exists_during) or a biological process term (with the relation happens_during).
