This title describes the work behind a major discovery: the establishment of a new pathway that specifically regulates the female meiosis, a process essential for sexual reproduction. It chronicles a new gene mapping method and the cloning and documentation of several types of genes that were proven to have significant influence on the cell cycle. It should be of interest to anyone doing work with fruit flies, both graduate students and principal investigators.
