Ectopic activation of Dpp signalling in the male <i>Drosophila</i> germline inhibits germ cell differentiation
25 May 2004
Abstract excerpt
The mechanisms that control differentiation of stem cells to specialised cell types probably include factors intrinsic to stem cells as well as extrinsic factors produced by the microenvironment of the stem cell niche. The Drosophila male germline is renewed from a population of stem cells located in the apical tip of the adult testis. The morphological relationship between germline stem cells and their...
