Examples of zygospore
zygospore
A zygospore is a diploid reproductive stage in the life cycle of many fungi and protists.
From the en.wikipedia.org
The gametangium develops into a zygospore, a thick-walled spore formed by the union of gametes.
From the en.wikipedia.org
When the environment is favorable, the zygospore germinates, meiosis occurs, and haploid vegetative cells are released.
From the en.wikipedia.org
A zygospore remains dormant while it waits for environmental cues, such as light, moisture, heat, or chemicals secreted by plants.
From the en.wikipedia.org
When the zygospore germinates, it undergoes meiosis, generating new haploid hyphae, which may then form asexual sporangiospores.

- A plant spore formed by two similar sexual cells
- A zygospore is a diploid reproductive stage in the life cycle of many fungi and protists. Zygospores are created by the nuclear fusion of haploid cells. In fungi, zygospores are termed chlamydospores and are formed after the fusion of hyphae of different mating types. ...
- A zygosperm; A spore formed by the union of several zoospores
- A resting spore resulting from the conjugation of isogametes or the fusion of like gametangia in the Zygomycota (Hawksworth et al., 1983).
- A thick-walled, resistant spore resulting from a zygote.
- The resistant multinucleate zygote of the Zygomycota.
- Sexual spore resulting from the conjugation of gametes, found within a zygosporangium, contains a diploid nucleus.
- A thick-walled resting spore formed from the fusion of gametes or a fertilized oogonium
- A fungal resting spore produced by the fusion of equal gametes.
