Extended Data Fig. 4: Distance between SPBs after changing the net outward force in the metaphase spindle.

(a) Distance between SPBs at the end of metaphase for different diploid fusion strains. Boxes represent means and standard deviation (from left to right, n = 18, 18, 20, 17; independent single-cell measurements). (b) Distance between SPBs over time in benomyl-treated cells. For normalization, the time point with maximal SPB separation during anaphase was set to zero (top: n = 20, bottom: n = 18). Source numerical data are available in source data.
