From the en.wikipedia.org
In fungi, a sporangium is produced at the end of a sporangiophore that sheds spores.
From the en.wikipedia.org
The sporophyte phase produces spores within the sporangium by meiosis.
From the en.wikipedia.org
It is so named because each sporangium produces just four spores.
From the en.wikipedia.org
In parallel to these developments, the other kind of sporangium, the microsporangium, produces microspores.
From the en.wikipedia.org
