From: Fine scale analysis of gene expression in Drosophila melanogaster gonads reveals Programmed cell death 4 promotes the differentiation of female germline stem cells

Figure 1

Gene expression in the germarium and apex of the testis. (A-D) Laser cutting microdissection. Photomicrographs show fixed and dehydrated ovariole (A, C) and testis (B, D), before (A, B) and after (C, D) the tissue was captured. Scale bars are 50 μm. The captured tissue was used for RNA isolation and subsequent expression profiling. (E) Differential gene expression in the germarium compared to the testis apex. Volcano plot shows M value (log2(testis apex/germarium) on the X-axis and statistical significance (-log10 adjusted p-values) on the Y-axis.
