Abstract excerpt
Stem cells require signals from a cellular microenvironment known as the niche that regulates identity, location and division of stem cells. Niche cell identity must be properly specified during development to form a tissue capable of functioning in the adult. Here, we show that the Tbx1 ortholog org-1 is expressed in Drosophila testis niche cells in response to Slit and FGF signals. org-1 is expressed during...
