Engineering Biomimetic Sporangia in Land Plants [PDF]
BioengineeringThe land plant sporangium is unique in its ability to initiate differentiation of the reproductive germ line, leading directly to meiosis and the formation of eggs and sperm; but our lack of understanding of the processes underlying gametogenesis in ...

Components of the Clp complex are required for sporangium formation and dehiscence in Actinoplanes missouriensis [PDF]
Journal of BacteriologyThe actinomycete Actinoplanes missouriensis forms terminal sporangia that contain a few hundred spores. When immersed in water, the sporangium opens to release spores, which start swimming using flagella, via a process referred to as sporangium ...
