Figure 2

The eigenvalues of the Jacobian during the budding yeast cell cycle. A small daughter cell was simulated from birth (time = 0) until its subsequent cell division (time = 144.92). The grey areas mark the periods, where there is at least one positive eigenvalue. The dark grey area marks the location of a sharp positive eigenvalue peak. Cell cycle phases are noted and enlarged inlets of the positive eigenvalue regimes are attached.
