Nurse cell polytene chromosomes of Drosophila melanogaster otu mutants: morphological changes accompanying interallelic complementation and position effect variegation.

Developmental genetics - 1 Jan 1997

Mal'ceva N I, Belyaeva E S, King R C, Zhimulev I F

Abstract excerpt

Combinations of certain mutant alleles of the ovarian tumor gene permit the production of viable eggs. Two alleles that behave in this way are otu7 and otu11. Females homozygous for either allele are sterile, and their ovarian nurse cells (NC) contain giant polytene chromosomes of various morphologies. Fertile flies (otu+/otu+, otu+/otu7, otu+/otu11) have endopolyploid nurse cells with typical dispersed...
