A spore formed by the union of several zoöspores; -- called also zygozoöspore.
(Gr. zygos: yoke; spora: seed) n. A zygote with a thick resistant wall, formed by some algae and fungi (see Zygomycota). It results from the fusion of two gametes, neither of which is retained by the parent in any specialized sex organ (such as an oogonium). It enters a resting phase before germination. Cf. oospore.
A thick-walled sexual spore formed by the fusion of two gametangia in the Zygomycetes. Example: Rhizopus.
A sexually produced resting fungal spore of the zygomycetes produced by the fusion of two morphologically similar gametangia. A thick-walled resting spore produced as the result of sexual reproduction by some phycomycetes.
(Gr. zygon, a yoke + spore) A thick-walled resistant spore developing from a zygote resulting from the fusion of isogametes.
a plant spore formed by two similar sexual cells
a special type of chlamydospore arising from sexual conjugation between two fungi
A thick-walled resting spore formed from the fusion of gametes or a fertilized oogonium
zi-go-SPOOR Sexual structure of zygomycetes that consists of zygotes within thick black coats. 481
A thick-walled resting spore that is formed from the union of similar gametes.
A thick-walled, resistant spore resulting from a zygote.
In fungi, a structure that forms from the diploid zygote created by the fusion of haploid hyphae of different mating types. After a period of dormancy, the zygospore forms sporangia, where meiosis occurs and spores form.
sexual spore resulting from the conjugation of gametes, found within a zygosporangium, contains a diploid nucleus.
A sexual resting spore formed within a zygosporangium. ( 22)
A zygospore is a sexual part of a fungus, a chlamydospore that is created by the nuclear fusion of haploid hyphae of different mating types.
