Involves Maternally-Transmitted Small RNAs Whose Production Depends on the piRNA Pathway and HP1

transgene located in euchromatin. Phenotypic and genetic analysis have shown that TSE exhibits variegation in ovaries, displays a maternal effect as well as epigenetic transmission through meiosis and involves heterochromatin (including HP1) and RNA silencing., as well as to the dose of HP1., a RNA silencing pathway can depend on heterochromatin components
