Among plants—all of which have a life cycle characterized by alternating generations of asexually and sexually reproducing individuals—spores are the reproductive agents of the asexual generation. Produced by the sporophyte (i.e., spore-bearing) generation, plant spores give rise to the haploid gametophyte (i.e., gamete-bearing) generation.

19 sie 2021 · Updated on August 19, 2021. Spores are reproductive cells in plants; algae and other protists; and fungi. They are typically single-celled and have the ability to develop into a new organism. Unlike gametes in sexual reproduction, spores do not need to fuse in order for reproduction to take place.
2 lut 2023 · Sporulation or spore formation is the process of producing spores from the actively dividing (vegetative) cells. They are commonly found in bacteria , fungi, protozoa , and some plants such as ferns and mosses.
All plants can be classified as either bryophytes or tracheophytes. Plants that contain transport vessels (xylem and phloem) are tracheophytes, while those without transport vessels are bryophytes. All plants contain cell walls and chloroplasts, but only a tracheophyte would contain xylem.
