Forcibly discharged from the fungal fruiting body due to internal force (such as built up pressure) Basidiospores and/or part of the genus Pilobus: Ballistospore mechanism of dispersal from fungi: Stratismospores Forcibly discharged from the fungal fruting body due to external force (such as raindrops or passing animals) Puffballs
The term sporogenesis can also refer to endospore formation in bacteria, which allows the cells to survive unfavorable conditions. Endospores are not reproductive structures and their formation does not require cell fusion or division. Instead, they form through the production of an encapsulating spore coat within the spore-forming cell.
Climate change may increase the prevalence of some rust species while causing others to decline through increased CO 2 and O 3, changes to temperature and humidity, and enhanced spore dispersal due to more frequent extreme weather events.
Nov. 19—ANDERSON — With each step hikers take along the trails of Indiana's state forests, they're coming closer than they realize to a vast microbial network that some scientists believe ...
Global climate change is affecting AM fungal communities and interactions between AM fungi and their plant hosts. While it is generally accepted that interactions between organisms will affect their response to global climate change, we still lack the ability to predict the outcome of these interactions in future climates.

The sporocarp (also known as fruiting body, fruit body or fruitbody) of fungi is a multicellular structure on which spore-producing structures, such as basidia or asci, are borne. The fruitbody is part of the sexual phase of a fungal life cycle , [ 1 ] while the rest of the life cycle is characterized by vegetative mycelial growth and asexual ...
Spores form a part of the life cycles of a diverse range of organisms such as many bacteria, plants, algae, fungi and some protozoa. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Kingdom Fungi), the set of early genes activating sporulation is induced by Ime1 (Inducer of Meiosis 1) and a regulator of middle genes is Ndt80p. [4]
Chytridiomycota are a division of zoosporic organisms in the kingdom Fungi, informally known as chytrids.The name is derived from the Ancient Greek χυτρίδιον (khutrídion), meaning "little pot", describing the structure containing unreleased zoospores.
