| WBPicture0000013347 | Description | GLD-1 Has the Opposite Sex Determination Function in C. elegans and C. briggsae For (A) and (B) the distal end of the gonad arm is indicated by the asterisk, and regions of the germline are delimited by dashed vertical lines as follows: M, mitotic zone; TZ, transition zone; P, pachytene; Pa, abnormal pachytene; and S, spermatocytes. For both (A) and (B) staining indicated is as follows: DAPI, blue, nuclear DNA; GLD-1, green; and MSP, red. (A) RNAi of C. briggsae gld-1 results in masculinization of the germline. Paired DAPI-stained (left) and GLD-1- and MSP-stained (right) images of dissected young adult hermphrodite germlines. Top four panels illustrate the similarity between C. elegans and C. briggsae germline morphology and polarity (DAPI, blue; GLD-1, green; MSP, red). In both species, sperm (''sperm'' arrow) are produced first before switching to oogenesis (''oocytes'' arrow), and the pattern of cytoplasmic GLD-1 accumulation (green) is identical. GFP-injected controls were identical to wild-type animals. | |||
