Divisions of Pn.p granddaughters are represented by "T" = transverse, "L" = longitudinal, "O" = oblique, or "D" = divided with axis undetermined, based on the orientation of the division axis. The failure of a Pn.p granddaughter to divide is represented by "U" = undivided.

*

Idealized lineages. Penetrances of division defects in cog-1 mutants are less than 100%. See Palmer et al. for details. For bed-3 mutants, each line represents a single animal.
