        <LIBRARY_CONSTRUCTION_PROTOCOL>Whole testis single cell suspension was diluted to 10,000 cells/mL and single cell RNA-seq libraries were prepared using the Chromium Next GEM Single Cell 3' GEM Library Kit. Libraries were sequenced on an Illumina NovaSeq. Testes from gray short-tailed opossums at Yale or adult (8-16 week old) male C57BL6/J mice purchased from Jackson Laboratories were harvested and dissociated into single-cell suspension for RNA isolation using collagenase and trypsin. Briefly, testes were removed from the scrotum, decapsulated from the tunica albuginea, and incubated in 0.75mg/mL collagenase in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (Gibco 11965-09L; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) at 37oC. DMEM was added to dilute collagenase and samples were centrifuged for 5 minutes at 400 x g at room temperature. Supernatant was discarded and samples were washed in DMEM. Samples were resuspended in 0.05% trypsin-EDTA (Gibco 25300-054; Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc.) with DNAse (1:10,000; Stem Cell Technologies #07900, Vancouver BC, Canada). The reaction was quenched with 10% Cosmic Calf Serum (Sigma-Aldrich #C8056, Burlington, MA, USA) in DMEM (CCS-DMEM) and centrifuged. Samples were resuspended in CCS-DMEM and filtered through a 100-micron filter. Cell concentration was determined by hemocytometer.</LIBRARY_CONSTRUCTION_PROTOCOL>

Briefly, testes were removed from the scrotum, decapsulated from the tunica albuginea, and incubated in 0.75mg/mL collagenase in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (Gibco 11965-09L; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) at 37oC. DMEM was added to dilute collagenase and samples were centrifuged for 5 minutes at 400 x g at room temperature. Supernatant was discarded and samples were washed in DMEM. Samples were resuspended in 0.05% trypsin-EDTA (Gibco 25300-054; Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc.) with DNAse (1:10,000; Stem Cell Technologies #07900, Vancouver BC, Canada). The reaction was quenched with 10% Cosmic Calf Serum (Sigma-Aldrich #C8056, Burlington, MA, USA) in DMEM (CCS-DMEM) and centrifuged. Samples were resuspended in CCS-DMEM and filtered through a 100-micron filter. Cell concentration was determined by hemocytometer.</LIBRARY_CONSTRUCTION_PROTOCOL>

Briefly, testes were removed from the scrotum, decapsulated from the tunica albuginea, and incubated in 0.75mg/mL collagenase in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (Gibco 11965-09L; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.) at 37oC. DMEM was added to dilute collagenase and samples were centrifuged for 5 minutes at 400 x g at room temperature. Supernatant was discarded and samples were washed in DMEM. Samples were resuspended in 0.05% trypsin-EDTA (Gibco 25300-054; Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc.) with DNAse (1:10,000; Stem Cell Technologies #07900, Vancouver BC, Canada). The reaction was quenched with 10% Cosmic Calf Serum (Sigma-Aldrich #C8056, Burlington, MA, USA) in DMEM (CCS-DMEM) and centrifuged. Samples were resuspended in CCS-DMEM and filtered through a 100-micron filter. Cell concentration was determined by hemocytometer.</LIBRARY_CONSTRUCTION_PROTOCOL>
