The peripheral asters come into close apposition with the cortex.From theCambridge English Corpus
Indeed, the antibody stained the asters and (more strongly) the vesicular components attaching to the periphery of the mitotic apparatus.From theCambridge English Corpus
Although the paternal centrosome duplicated, the maternal centrosome in the centre of the eggasterdid not divide.From theCambridge English Corpus
The microtubules of the maleasterare arranged in a funnel-shaped array, all stretching to the fertilisation area in the cortex.From theCambridge English Corpus
Migration of the asters sets one in the centre of the egg and the other in the cortex.From theCambridge English Corpus
Microtubules of both asters reaching into the cortex cross each other cirumferentially.From theCambridge English Corpus
This indicates that neitherasteris strongly attached to the cortex until the end of metaphase.From theCambridge English Corpus
The lower ('vegetal') spindle pole produces a much largerasterthan the upper ('animal') spindle pole.From theCambridge English Corpus
Again, the microtubules of the centralasterrun along the pronuclear surface and reach the cell cortex.From theCambridge English Corpus
All microtubules associate with the meiotic spindle and asters.From theCambridge English Corpus
However, fully developed microtubule asters were not observed.From theCambridge English Corpus
These asters grow until the male pronucleus reaches its female counterpart and disintegrate afterwards.From theCambridge English Corpus
A small microtubuleasterwas observed in association with decondensed chromatin following nuclear transfer, suggesting the introduction of a somatic cell centrosome.From theCambridge English Corpus
In early metaphase, a bipolar spindle with broad poles and devoid of asters is formed.From theCambridge English Corpus
At metaphase the two equal-sized asters span the entire egg in a symmetrical arrangement.From theCambridge English Corpus
