Unveiling Inter-Embryo Variability in Spindle Length over time: towards Quantitative Phenotype Analysis.

Yann Le Cunff, Laurent Chesneau, Sylvain Pastezeur, Xavier Pinson, Nina Soler, Danielle Fairbrass, Benjamin Mercat, Ruddi Rodríguez-García, Zahraa Alayan, Ahmed Abdouni, Gary de Neidhardt, Valentin Costes, Mélodie Anjubault, Hélène Bouvrais, Christophe Héligon, Jacques Pécréaux

The paper identifies three archetypes of spindle elongation in C. elegans embryos that capture most inter-individual variability, revealing that only three independent mechanisms drive spindle elongation across conditions.

The mitotic spindle in the one-cell C. elegans embryo is positioned with high precision and stability

Jacques Pecreaux, Stephanie Redemann, Zahraa Alayan, Benjamin Mercat, Sylvain Pastezeur, Carlos Garzon Coral, Anthony A Hyman, Jonathon Howard

The paper quantifies the precision and stability of mitotic spindle positioning in C. elegans embryos and proposes a mechanism involving microtubule buckling.
