Contents
General Introduction. Female meiotic cell cycle. Genesis and meiosis in Drosophila females. Cell Cycle regulation of Drosophila female meiosis. Mutations in grauzone (grau) and cortex (cort) block progression of Drosophila female meiosis and cause other defects. Goals and significance of this dissertation research -- Mapping of Drosophila Mutations Using Site-Specific Male Recombination. Materials and Methods. Results -- Completion of Meiosis in Drosophila Oocytes Requires Transcriptional Control by Grauzone, a New Zinc Finger Protein. Experimental Procedures. Results. Discussion -- Conclusion and Considerations. Drosophila as a model to study regulation of female meiotic cell cycle. Grau and cort are two members of a new pathway that regulates the meiotic cell cycle machinery in Drosophila females. Male recombination mapping is a general method to map Drosophila autosomal mutations.
