a Fluorescence microscopic images of the re-cultured late stationary-phase ftsZ-mNeonGreen cells present in fresh LB medium lacking rhamnose, as obtained at the indicated time points. Note: one of the examined cells divided into two daughter cells at 120 min (circled by pink dashed lines). Scale bars, 1 μm. b Fluorescence microscopic images of the late stationary-phase ftsZ-mNeonGreen cells re-cultured to the log phase (OD600 ~0.5) in liquid LB medium lacking rhamnose. Scale bar, 1 μm. c Fluorescence microscopic images of the late stationary-phase ftsZ-mNeonGreen cells re-cultured to the indicated time points in fresh LB medium that lacked rhamnose and contained the antibiotic chloramphenicol. Scale bars, 1 μm
