Expression of lolaScer\UAS.R.T:Avic\GFP in the germ cells under the control of Scer\GAL4nos.UTR.T:Hsim\VP16 does not disrupt germ cell migration or gonad formation.
Expression of lolaScer\UAS.R.T:Avic\GFP in the mesoderm under the control of Scer\GAL4twi.PG rescues the gonad defects of lolaC28/lola22.05 mutant embryos, leading to round and compact stage 15 gonads and few germ cells that have not been ensheathed by somatic gonadal precursor cells.
Expression of lolaScer\UAS.R.T:Avic\GFP in the mesoderm under the control of Scer\GAL4twi.PG rescues the gonad defects of homozygous lola22.05 mutant embryos.
