    ..Moreover, in the ovary da- alleles exhibit dominant synergistic interactions with N or Dl mutations. We propose that all three of these genes function in the same regulatory pathway to control follicle formation...

    ..This suggests that the female-specific germline function of da+ is provided to the zygote as maternally synthesized RNA that becomes translated early in embryogenesis...

    ..holmesii may have significantly contributed to its emergence as a human pathogen. Horizontal gene transfer between B. pertussis and B. holmesii may also explain the unusually high sequence identity of their 16S rRNA genes...
