Why does the picture of moss sporangia not come with a species name?[edit]

This would be helpful, I have just started looking into moss species so I am not too sure but I do think it is needed — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.209.113.99 (talk) 11:34, 9 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]


Additional information from Macrosporangia[edit]

I've deleted the info from Macrosporangia, and created a redirect to here Sporangium. There was a little bit of info that might be useful, but I was not familiar with it, so thought it best to leave on this talk page. If anyone knows can confirm the information, please put it in the main article.

The megasporangium is protected by a seed coat called the integument. The megasporangium is sometimes also referred to as the nucellus.

Liverworts?[edit]

I thought that Liverworts reproduced by means of spores - but they're not listed as having sporangia. If they don't - what do they have in stead?

Liverworts disperse by means of spores (as do ferns and mosses). Note that all plants "reproduce" by means of spores, it's just that plants with seeds don't rely on their spores to establish new plants. --EncycloPetey 01:52, 25 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Revision Needed[edit]

This topic is a fundamental aspect of land plant life cycles and should have a better treatment. I will add what I can. Michaplot (talk) 05:27, 12 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Why does "sporangiospore" redirect here?[edit]

What does it mean? Equinox (talk) 16:20, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

A fungal sporangium contains sporangiospores and it would be reasonable to assume that no editor has found sufficient material of interest to create a stand-alone article about sporangiospores and therefore re-directed here. Sound reasonable to me. Is there a problem with this ?  Velella  Velella Talk   16:32, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I work on Wiktionary and was trying to get a definition of the word I could use. Equinox (talk) 17:45, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
