We have a number of images of fission yeast cells on our web site, which are collected here. These can be used for teaching or on an unofficial (e.g., lab or course) web site free of charge. However, you must provide credit and if your usage is online, also a link back to our home page. These images are are copyrighted, so please contact us for any "official" use.

| Wild type fission yeast cells, stained with DAPI and actively dividing.
From the home page
|
Wildtype cells on a plate.
|
| Wild type fission yeast cells, expressing a GFP fusion protein with a nuclear localization sequence.
From the group page and the background.
|
Wild type and mutant diploids, stained with DAPI and backlit by phase.
From the research page
|
| Diploid cells after meiosis, stained with DAPI and backlit by phase. These are "azygotic asci". From the introduction and the diploids pages
|
Homothallic cells (h90) that have undergone mating, stained with DAPI and backlit by phase.
This culture is a mixture of haploids, zygotes (conjugated haploids, or transient diploids),
and "zygotic asci" (sporulated conjugants).
From the diploids pages

| Wild type (left) and cdc mutant (right), stained with DAPI. Note the cdc mutant is not dividing. From the introduction.
| The fission yeast cell cycle, from the replication page. The cells are in S phase before they complete cell separation from the previous cell cycle. These DAPI stained cells clearly show the difference between an interphase nucleus (with the "bite" of the nucleolus taken out) and the condensed mitotic nuclei. You can estimate where the spindle is, by looking at nuclear architecture.
