Correlation of cell size with polar foci. PY79 cells in the exponential phase of growth in minimal glucose medium were fixed and immunostained for SMC. The clear presence of polar foci was scored with solid bars; the absence of polar foci was scored with shaded bars. In several cells that were >3 μm long, SMC foci were detectable at the midcell position between segregated nucleoids; these are not indicated in the diagram.
