Figure 1. — Chromosome length scales to cell size during early C. elegans embryogenesis. (A) Representative still images of time-lapse movies from embryos expressing H2B::GFP and γ-tubulin::GFP (TH32) at the 1- to 16-cell stage. Insets are an enlargement of the nucleus in prometaphase. Bars, 5 µm. (B) Prometaphase chromosome length measurements at different developmental stages (marks) and in correlation to cell size (up to 28 µm in diameter, linear regression) in control embryos. n = 354 chromosomes.
