Fig. 3. Immunofluorescence images of cytokinesis in polyspermic zygotes of S.
lomentaria. (A,C,E,G) DIC images; (B,D,F,H) merged images of
immunolocalization of ß-tubulin (green), centrin (red) and DAPI staining
(blue). (A,B) Anaphase of a multipolar spindle. Four daughter nuclei are
formed. Arrowheads in B show four anti-centrin-positive spots. (C,D) Four
daughter cells are produced. Each of the four daughter cells contains one
nucleus and one centrosome. Arrows in C show cytokinetic planes and arrowheads
in D show anti-centrin-positive spots. (E,F) Three daughter cells are
produced. Each of the three daughter cells contains one nucleus. One of the
three cells contains two centrosomes. These centrosomes are close to each
other and function as one MTOC. Arrows in E show cytokinetic planes and
arrowheads in F show anti-centrin-positive spots. (G,H) Four daughter cells
are produced. Each of the four daughter cells contains one centrosome. The top
cell has no nucleus. Arrows in G show cytokinetic planes and arrowheads in H
show anti-centrin-positive spots.
