  2. Zoospore - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoospore

    Zoospores may possess one or more distinct types of flagella - tinsel or "decorated", and whiplash, in various combinations. Tinsellated (straminipilous [3]) flagella have lateral filaments known as mastigonemes perpendicular to their main axis, which allow for more surface area, and disturbance of the medium, giving them the property of a rudder, that is, used for steering.

  3. Chlamydomonas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chlamydomonas

    Chlamydomonas (/ ˌ k l æ m ɪ ˈ d ɒ m ə n ə s,-d ə ˈ m oʊ-/ KLAM-ih-DOM-ə-nəs, -⁠də-MOH-) is a genus of green algae consisting of about 150 species [2] of unicellular flagellates, found in stagnant water and on damp soil, in freshwater, seawater, and even in snow as "snow algae". [3]

  4. Aphelidium tribonemae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aphelidium_tribonemae

    Aphelids have posterior uniflagellate zoospores which place them as Opisthokonts. [1] They are an early diverging lineage in Kingdom Fungi. [1] While the aphelid group only contains three genera, it spans many both freshwater and marine ecosystems. Aphelidium tribonemae are obligate parasites of freshwater algae, biotrophs, and primary ...

  5. Oomycete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oomycete

    Many oomycetes species are economically important, aggressive algae and plant pathogens. [13] [14] Some species can cause disease in fish, and at least one is a pathogen of mammals. The majority of the plant pathogenic species can be classified into four groups, although more exist.

  6. Spore - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spore

    In some rare cases, diploid spore is also produced in some algae, or fungi. [6] Under favourable conditions, the spore can develop into a new organism using mitotic division, producing a multicellular gametophyte, which eventually goes on to produce gametes. Two gametes fuse to form a zygote, which develops into a new sporophyte.

  7. Oedogonium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oedogonium

    Oedogonium is a genus of filamentous, free-living green algae. It was first discovered in the fresh waters of Poland in 1860 by W. Hilse, and later given its name by German scientist K. E. Hirn. The morphology of Oedogonium is unique, with an interior and exterior that function differently from one another and change throughout its life cycle.

  8. Water net - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_net

    Algae in the genus can reproduce asexually or sexually. Asexual reproduction takes place by biflagellated (having two flagella) zoospores formed by the thousands inside a cell. However, the zoospores hardly move, as they are packed very densely.

  9. Autospore - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autospore

    Algae primarily use three different types of spores for asexual reproduction - autospores, zoospores, and aplanospores. [3] Autospores occur in several groups of algae, including Eustigmatophyceae, Dinoflagellates, and green algae. One example of a colonial alga that produces autospores is Dichotomococcus.
