Term:sporulation resulting in formation of a cellular spore
go back to main search page
Accession:GO:0030435 term browser browse the term
Definition:The process in which a relatively unspecialized cell acquires the specialized features of a cellular spore, a cell form that can be used for dissemination, for survival of adverse conditions because of its heat and dessication resistance, and/or for reproduction.
Comment:Note that the synonym 'spore differentiation', like the term name and definition, refers to differentiation into a spore rather than any subsequent developmental changes that a spore may undergo.
Synonyms:exact_synonym: cellular spore formation by sporulation;   spore biosynthesis;   spore differentiation;   spore formation
 xref: Wikipedia:Sporogenesis
