Ovaries in females expressing stwlEY05697 under the control of Scer\GAL4nos.UTR.T:Hsim\VP16 are morphologically similar to wild type. However, they contain extra germline stem cell (GSC)-like cells in the germarium, with on average, two to three extra GSC-like cells per germarium compared to controls.
Scer\GAL4VP16.nanos.UTR, stwlEY05697 has female germline stem cell | increased number phenotype, suppressible by nanos18/nos[+]
Scer\GAL4VP16.nanos.UTR, stwlEY05697 has female germline stem cell | increased number phenotype, suppressible by Df(3R)Delta-FX1/+
Scer\GAL4VP16.nanos.UTR, stwlEY05697 has female germline stem cell | increased number phenotype, suppressible by pum9/pum[+]
The phenotype of extra germline stem cells that is seen in the germarium of females expressing stwlEY05697 under the control of Scer\GAL4nos.UTR.T:Hsim\VP16 is suppressed if the females also carry nos18/+, Df(3R)Dl-FX1/+ or pum9/+.
