Cap cell number was determined by nuclear position and morphology as revealed by anti-Tj staining. To assess ovarian GSC, cyst and cap number, and the frequency of follicle formation defects, 3 independent experiments were performed and a total of 60?00 ovaries were scored. Testis GSC number counts were based on 3 independent experiments and a total of 20?0 testes.TUNEL Analysis of Apoptotic CystsTUNEL staining was carried out using In Situ Cell Death Detection Kit TMR red (Roche, Germany). Briefly, ovaries were dissected and fixed in 4 paraformaldehyde (Sigma) for 12 minutes. Following fixation, they were washed twice with PBT (PBS/0.1 Triton-x100) and twice with PBS/0.5 Triton-x100. Ovaries were then incubated for 30 minutes at 65uC in 100 mM sodium citrate diluted in PBT followed by three PBT washes. Enzyme diluted 1:10 in labeling mix was 
then added and incubated for 2 hours at 37uC. Ovaries were washed in PBT and antibody staining was then performed as described above.membranes and spectrosome/fusome (anti-Hts and anti-FasIII).
