Fig 1. Ovary-specific BCDIN3D knockdown flies cannot lay eggs.

Fig 1

(A) Domain structures of Drosophila BCDIN3D and human BCDIN3D. (B) Relative abundance of BCDIN3D mRNA normalized with rp49 mRNA in the ovaries of ovary-specific BCDIN3D knockdown and control knockdown flies. Mean ± SD for three biological replicates. P-value <0.05 is indicated by * (Student's t-test). (C) Stereomicroscope images of ovaries dissected from control and BCDIN3D knockdown flies. Scale bar shows 0.5 mm. (D) The numbers of eggs laid by control and BCDIN3D knockdown females crossed with OregonR wild-type males. Mean ± SD for three biological replicates. Each biological replicate datum represents the average number of eggs laid per single female in the cage containing 5 females and 3 males. P-value <0.05 is indicated by * (Student's t-test).
