Abstract excerpt

The advancement of Drosophila germline stem cell research accompanies the development of powerful new tools for genetic analysis. These include the techniques of stem cell labeling, cell lineage tracing, mosaic mutant analysis, and gene manipulation in targeted cell populations, which together constitute the critical methodologies in stem cell research. We discuss four such techniques: the tubulin-lacZ...
