Abstract
⺠Ago1 protein is highly enriched in Drosophila oocytes and follicle cells. ⺠Many Ago1 mutant egg chambers contain only 8 nurse cells without an oocyte. ⺠dicer-1, pasha and drosha exhibit similar effects on oogenesis as ago1. ⺠miRNAs play roles in oocyte formation and germline cell division in Drosophila.
