Abstract excerpt
We have studied the role of three loci, quit, ovarian tumor and shut down during oocyte differentiation in Drosophila by using in situ hybridisation and double mutant analyses. Mutations in qui and otu disturb the cystocyte divisions and the oocyte determination, while mutations in shu affect the cystocyte integrity, nevertheless allowing differentiation of normal-looking egg chambers with an oocyte. In all...
