A sporophyll is a leaf that bears sporangia. Both microphylls and megaphylls can be sporophylls. In heterosporous plants, sporophylls (whether they are...

Above these enations there are synangia formed by the fusion of three sporangia and which produce the spores. When mature, the synangia release yellow...

Sporangia are spread by wind or water and enable the movement of P. infestans between different host plants. The zoospores released from sporangia are...
