UAS regulatory sequences drive expression of a short inverted repeat.
The expression of dcoGL00001 under the control of Scer\GAL4nos.PG leads to germline degeneration in the germarium.
Females heterozygous for dcoGL00001 and MTD-Gal4 (consists of Scer\GAL4otu.T:Hsim\VP16, Scer\GAL4nos.PG and Scer\GAL4nos.UTR.T:Hsim\VP16) crossed to dcoGL00001 males results in: no eggs; egg/embryonic phenotype: no vitellogenic egg chambers; oogenesis defect.
