  2. Sporangium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sporangium

    Sporangia (clustered in sori) on a fern leaf Equisetum arvense strobilus cut open to reveal sporangia. Sporangia can be terminal (on the tips) or lateral (placed along the side) of stems or associated with leaves. In ferns, sporangia are typically found on the abaxial surface (underside) of the leaf and are densely aggregated into clusters ...

  3. Mucorales - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mucorales

    The sporangiospores are asexual mitospores (formed via mitosis), produced inside sporangia (thousands of spores) or sporangioles (single or few spores).They are released when mature by the disintegration of the sporangium wall, or as a whole sporangiole that separates from the sporangiophore.

  4. Synchytrium endobioticum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchytrium_endobioticum

    The fungus produces a thick walled structure known as a winter sporangium. It is 25-75 μm in diameter and contains 200-300 spores. Sporangia are clustered into thin-walled sori. The motile life stage, zoospore is about 0,5 μm in diameter and has one posterior flagellum.

    A walled spore produced within a sporangium. [358] sporangium. pl. sporangia. A sac-like structure that produces spores endogenously. From Gr. angeion, vessel. [359] spore A reproductive structure in fungi. Can result from both sexual and asexual processes. [360] spore wall The layered wall defining a spore. Considered to have five layers.

  6. Rhizopus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhizopus

    In asexual reproduction, spores are produced inside a spherical structure, the sporangium. Sporangia are supported by a large apophysate columella atop a long stalk, the sporangiophore. Sporangiophores arise among distinctive, root-like rhizoids. In sexual reproduction, a dark zygospore is produced at the point where two compatible mycelia fuse ...

  7. Eusporangiate fern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eusporangiate_fern

    Eusporangiate ferns are vascular spore plants, whose sporangia arise from several epidermal cells and not from a single cell as in leptosporangiate ferns.Typically these ferns have reduced root systems and sporangia that produce large amounts of spores (up to 7000 spores per sporangium in Christensenia).

  8. Spinellus fusiger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinellus_fusiger

    Spinellus fusiger, commonly known as bonnet mold, [1] is a species of fungus in the phylum Mucoromycota.It is a pin mold that is characterized by erect sporangiophores (specialized hyphae that bear a sporangium) that are simple in structure, brown or yellowish-brown in color, and with branched aerial filaments that bear the zygospores.

  9. Sporophyll - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sporophyll

    Sporangia are produced directly on stems. Psilotum has been interpreted as producing sporangia (fused in a synangium) on the terminus of a stem. Equisetum always produce strobili, but the structures bearing sporangia (sporangiophores) have been interpreted as modified stems. The sporangia, despite being recurved are interpreted as terminal.
