The embryo contains both GFP:Histone H2B and GFP:gamma tubulin allowing for visualizaion of both the chromosomes and the centrosomes respectively. At the 8 cells stage, the embryo contains the AB.a1, AB.ar, AB.p1, AB.pr, MS, E, C and P3 cells. The 2 cells that divide at the bottom near the end of the movie are the MS and E cells (with E dividing first). Imaged by confocal microscopy (maximum intensity projections created from each timepoint). Movie covers approximately 17.5 minutes of development. • This movie was part of a competition on the Node (http://thenode.biologists.com/) to choose a cover for the journal Development (http://bit.ly/17ay2oA). • This movie was made by Daniela Di Bella (Fundacion Instituto Leloir), Joyce Pieretti (University of Chicago), Saori Tani (Kobe University) and Manuela Truebano (Plymouth University) at the Woods Hole embryology course 2012.
