Kälte als Auslöser einer Glykogen-Speicherung während der Oogenese vonMusca domestica

Summary InMusca domestica reared under standard conditions (21 °C), glycogen is stored in the oocyte towards the end of egg development. By 1–3 days exposure to lower temperatures (4 °C), a glycogen deposition can be released already in young follicles. This premature glycogen synthesis is not restricted to the ooplasm. Carbohydrates are also found in the nurse cells and the follicle epithelium. Similar results were formerly obtained by inhibition of oogenetic protein synthesis.
