The expression of MtorScer\UAS.cLa alone under the control of Scer\GAL4nos.UTR.T:Hsim\VP16 has no obvious effect on the germline stem cell population in adult testes, as compared to controls.
Co-expression of MtorScer\UAS.cLa under the control of Scer\GAL4nos.UTR.T:Hsim\VP16 rescues the germline stem cell number defects present in the testis of adults expressing MtorGD13871 under the control of Scer\GAL4nos.UTR.T:Hsim\VP16; this expression also rescues the germline stem cell loss seen in Mtork03905 homozygous germline clones.
