  2. Yeast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yeast

    The most common mode of vegetative growth in yeast is asexual reproduction by budding, [47] where a small bud (also known as a bleb or daughter cell) is formed on the parent cell. The nucleus of the parent cell splits into a daughter nucleus and migrates into the daughter cell.

  3. Budding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budding

    Budding or blastogenesis is a type of asexual reproduction in which a new organism develops from an outgrowth or bud due to cell division at one particular site. For example, the small bulb-like projection coming out from the yeast cell is known as a bud.

  4. Mating of yeast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mating_of_yeast

    The mating of yeast, also known as yeast sexual reproduction, is a biological process that promotes genetic diversity and adaptation in yeast species. Yeast species, such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae (baker's yeast), are single-celled eukaryotes that can exist as either haploid cells, which contain a single set of chromosomes , or diploid cells ...

  5. Asexual reproduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asexual_reproduction

    The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae reproducing by budding. Some cells divide by budding (for example baker's yeast), resulting in a "mother" and a "daughter" cell that is initially smaller than the parent. Budding is also known on a multicellular level; an animal example is the hydra, [10] which reproduces by budding. The buds grow into fully ...

  6. Blastoconidium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blastoconidium

    A blastoconidium (plural blastoconidia) is an asexual holoblastic conidia formed through the blowing out or budding process of a yeast cell, which is a type of asexual reproduction that results in a bud arising from a parent cell. [1] [2] The production of a blastoconidium can occur along a true hyphae, pseudohyphae, or a singular yeast cell. [3]

  7. Fragmentation (reproduction) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fragmentation_(reproduction)

    Fragmentation is a very common type of vegetative reproduction in plants.Many trees, shrubs, nonwoody perennials, and ferns form clonal colonies by producing new rooted shoots by rhizomes or stolons, which increases the diameter of the colony.

  8. Regeneration (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regeneration_(biology)

    Regeneration is different from reproduction. For example, hydra perform regeneration but reproduce by the method of budding. The regenerative process occurs in two multi-step phases: the preparation phase and the redevelopment phase. [10] [11] Regeneration begins with an amputation which triggers the first phase.

  9. Developmental biology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Developmental_biology

    Regeneration indicates the ability to regrow a missing part. [8] This is very prevalent amongst plants, which show continuous growth, and also among colonial animals such as hydroids and ascidians. But most interest by developmental biologists has been shown in the regeneration of parts in free living animals.
