## Abstract Renewing tissues in the adult organism such as the gastrointestinal (GI) epithelium depend on stem cells for epithelial maintenance and repair. Yet, little is known about the developmental origins of adult stem cells and their niches. Studies of Drosophila adult midgut precursors (AMPs)

## Abstract Previous work has suggested that many stem cells can be found in microanatomic niches, where adjacent somatic cells of the niche control the differentiation and proliferation states of their resident stem cells. Recently published work examining intestinal stem cells (ISCs) in the adult
## Abstract In many tissues, two or more types of stem cells share a niche, and how the stem cells coordinate their selfβrenewal and differentiation is poorly understood. In the __Drosophila__ testis, germ line stem cells (GSCs) and somatic cyst progenitor cells (CPCs) contact each other and share
The spatial pattern of precipitation is known to be highly dependent on meteorological conditions and relief. But the relationships between precipitation and topography in mountainous areas are not very well known, partly because of the complex topography in these regions, and partly because of the
