Gene protein sequence evolution can predict the rapid divergence of ovariole numbers inDrosophila

Carrie A. Whittle,
Cassandra G. Extavour

Abstract: Ovaries play key roles in fitness and evolution: they are essential female reproductive structures that develop and house the eggs in sexually reproducing animals. InDrosophila, the mature ovary contains multiple tubular egg-producing structures known as ovarioles. Ovarioles arise from somatic cellular structures in the larval ovary called terminal filaments, formed by terminal filament cells and subsequently enclosed by sheath cells. As in many other insects, ovariole number per female varies extensively inDr… Show more
