A Cytological F1 RNAi Screen for Defects in <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i> Female Meiosis
2024-01-15
Abstract excerpt
Genetic screens for recessive alleles induce mutations, make the mutated chromosomes homozygous, and then assay those homozygotes for the phenotype of interest. When screening for genes required for female meiosis, the phenotype of interest has typically been nondisjunction from chromosome segregation errors. As this requires that mutant females be viable and fertile, any mutants that are lethal or sterile when ho...
