Dicer-1 is a key enzyme in the regulation of oogenesis in panoistic ovaries

[Background information] In insects, the action of microRNAs (miRNAs) on oogenesis has been explored only in dipterans, which possess meroistic ovaries, a highly modified ovarian type. Here we study miRNA function in the most primitive, panoistic type of ovaries using the phylogenetically basal insect Blattella germanica (Dictyoptera, Blattellidae) as model.
