Fig. 2. Crossing scheme for isolating mutants defective in GFP-Staufen
localisation. The asterisk indicates the mutagenised chromosome. The red X
shows a mitotic recombination event between the two FRT sequences, which
occurs after induction of FLP expression in response to heat-shock.
ovoD1 is a dominant female-sterile mutation that blocks
oogenesis at early stages. Within a clonal ovary, the only germline cysts that
develop to later stages are those that are homozygous for the mutagenised
chromosome.
