Abstract
âºA mutagenesis screen identifies 24 genes involved in gonad formation. âºThese genes preferentially affect the behavior of the somatic gonad rather than the germ cells. âºGonad formation is regulated by both DE-cadherin-dependent and independent pathways. âºThe slit/robo pathway is essential for organogenesis of the gonad.
