Propidium iodide-stained dividing cells were scored for the shown patterns. Cells with a placement defect contained one chromatin mass at the midpoint of the cell and the other mass at one end of the cell. Cells exhibiting asymmetric chromatin distribution or a “cut” phenotype contained a septum. Only a fraction of the cells in other categories had formed a septum.
