Fig. 4. Transcript levels in mutants and gonads. (A) RNA was isolated from wild-type (wt) third instar larvae and from larvae homozygous for the alleles l(3)01895 (1895) or l(3)04106 (4106). Noa transcripts were detected using a cDNA probe. (B) RNA was isolated from OreR ovaries (O) and testes (T) and separated next to RNA from female (FC) and male (MC) carcasses. RNA amounts in the samples of A and B were compared by hybridization to RpL9 mRNA (Schmidt et al., 1996).
