Oospore description |
---|
An oospore is a thick-walled sexual spore that develops from a fertilized oosphere in some algae, fungi, and Oomycetes. They are believed to have evolved either through the fusion of two species or the chemically-induced stimulation of mycelia, leading to oospore formation.In Oomycetes, oospores can also result from asexual reproduction, by apomixis. These are found in Fungi as the sexual spores; these help in the sexual reproduction of Fungi.* |
