The complete process of formation and maturation of an ovum or female gamete from a primordial female germ cell. Examples of this process are found in Mus musculus and Drosophila melanogaster. Maintenance of the structural integrity of the ring canals connecting the female germline cyst. Attachment of the nurse cell nucleus to the plasma membrane. The directed movement of substances (such as macromolecules, small molecules, ions) into, out of, within or between cells, or within a multicellular organism by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed movement of cytoplasmic constituents synthesized in the nurse cells to the oocyte. Generation of the female gamete; specialised haploid cells produced by meiosis and along with a male gamete takes part in sexual reproduction. The directed movement of a cell, substance or cellular entity, such as a protein complex or organelle, to a specific location. Transfer of constituents synthesized in the ovarian nurse cells to the oocyte, through the ring canals, as the egg chamber is growing. An example of this is found in Drosophila melanogaster. Assembly of the intercellular bridges that connect the germ-line cells of a female cyst.
