pollen-the fine spores that contain male gametes and that are borne by an anther in a flowering plant. microspore-smaller of the two types of spore produced in heterosporous plants; develops in the pollen sac into a male gametophyte.
Spores are specialised cells of the fungus that can function as resting or dispersal propagules. Each spore has the potential to generate another individual of the species. In contrast to seeds, spores have no specialised components that differentiate them from other cells of the thallus.he haploid sexual spores of the Ascomycota are formed inside an ascus. Spore formation is initiated following hormonal interaction between hyphae of different mating types. Following plasmogamy, the two haploid nuclei exist in a dikaryon for a short period.
