oogenesis stage S5 [FBdv_00005265]
Oogenesis stage that begins when nurse cell chromosomes are no longer bulbous - the association between homologs weakens so that these chromosomes no longer have a polytene structure. During this stage, posterior nurse cell nuclei have a higher ploidy (64C) than anterior ones. (King, 1970, Mahowald and Kambysellis, 1980, Spradling, 1993)
