Cells which have lost their microtubule cytoskeleton can continue to grow, and can undergo septation and cytokinesis after a cell cycle delay. Our results are consistent with phenotypes seen in studies of tuhulin mutants (7). However, our experimental conditions ensure an almost complete loss of the microtubule cytoskeleton; and our time-lapse microscopy allows long-term viewing of the develop- men
