Fusome topology and inheritance during insect gametogenesis
2022-05-20
Abstract excerpt
From insects to mammals, oocytes ad sperm develop within germline cysts comprising cells connected by intercellular bridges (ICBs). In numerous insects, formation of the cyst is accompanied by growth of the fusome – a membranous that permeates the cyst. Fusome composition and function are best understood in Drosophila melanogaster : during oogenesis, the fusome dictates cyst topology and size and facilitates oocy...
