<i>Har-P, a</i> short <i>P</i> -element variant, weaponizes <i>P</i> -transposase to severely impair <i>Drosophila</i> development

Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Without transposon-silencing Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), transposition causes an ovarian atrophy syndrome in Drosophila called gonadal dysgenesis (GD). Harwich ( Har ) strains with P -elements cause severe GD in F1 daughters when Har fathers mate with mothers lacking P -element-piRNAs (i.e. ISO1 strain). To address the mystery of why Har induces severe GD, we bred hybrid Drosophila...
