| Method |
Research followed up to 4000 single cells at 5–10 min intervals under a fluorescent microscope for 18–45 hr as they underwent meiosis. External factors (temperature, nutrient flow) were kept constant and uniform across cells. |
| Comments |
The precommitment interval is highly variable from cell to cell (see BNID 102527) whereas this stage, the postcommitment interval, is far less variable |
