^†

At least 100 cells were used to quantify the cell length and area for each strain.

^‡

At least 30 cells were used to quantify the constriction rates for each strain.

^§

Relative constriction position for at least 40 cells is shown. A value of 0 corresponds to the new pole, 0.5 corresponds to mid-cell, and a value of 1 corresponds to the old pole.

^¶

ND – not determined.
