摘要：

A round mutant of Escherichia coli, when grown in Methocel medium, forms chains of cells and does not form tetrads. This implies that successive division planes of the round mutant are parallel rather than perpendicular. These results differ from a previous proposal that division planes in this round mutant are perpendicular to the prior division plane (W.D. Donachie, S. Addinall, and K. Begg, Bioessays 17:569-576, 1995).
