What's the difference between disporous and spore?
Disporous
Definition:
(a.) Having two spores.
Example Sentences:
(1) The larger, enveloped cell divides to form a disporous pansporoblast, which contains 2 pairs of capsulogenic and valvogenic cells and 2 binucleate sporoplasm cells.
(2) Both monosporous and disporous development within a surrounding "pseudoplasmodium" was detected.
(3) Spherical, disporous trophozoites (10-15 micrometers) and spores were observed in the lumina of kidney tubules and collecting ducts.
(4) A number of abortively disporic spoII mutants of Bacillus subtilis released their forespore compartments (termed stage II sporlets) after mother cell lysis during sporulation in nutrient exhaustion or resuspension media.
(5) Subspherical to spherical spores and mono- or disporous pseudoplasmodia were observed in the lumen of kidney tubules.
(6) This finding clarifies the majority of textbook and research reports (which tend to be ambiguous), contradicts several of the most recent textbook reports, and confirms three unillustrated textbook reports, in relation to the occurrence of disporous bacilli.
Spore
Definition:
(n.) One of the minute grains in flowerless plants, which are analogous to seeds, as serving to reproduce the species.
(n.) An embryo sac or embryonal vesicle in the ovules of flowering plants.
(n.) A minute grain or germ; a small, round or ovoid body, formed in certain organisms, and by germination giving rise to a new organism; as, the reproductive spores of bacteria, etc.
(n.) One of the parts formed by fission in certain Protozoa. See Spore formation, belw.
Example Sentences:
(1) After absorption of labeled glucose, two pools of trehalose are found in dormant spores, one of which is extractable without breaking the spores, and the other, only after the spores are disintegrated.
(2) The dose response initially resembled that described by Scholer (1959) in which one million spores killed the majority of mice.
(3) Abnormal synaptonemal complexes were seen in all 19 crosses of N. crassa and N. intermedia that were examined, including matings between standard laboratory strains, inversions, Spore killers, and strains collected from nature.
(4) The mutant spores are pleomorphic and differ both in shape and size from the wild-type spores.
(5) The results presented here substantiate the hypothesis that in S. cerevisiae trehalose supplies energy during dormancy of the spores and not during the germination process.
(6) The fungicidal activity of six rabbit neutrophil cationic peptides (NP) against resting (dormant) spores, preincubated (swollen) spores, and hyphae of Aspergillus fumigatus and Rhizopus oryzae was examined.
(7) In the electron microscope large aggregates of beta glycogen particles were seen in the cytoplasm of sporoplasm cells in mature spores.
(8) The spore germination was synchronized by selection of the spores of the definite size and maintenance at a temperature of 0 degrees.
(9) GAD activity appeared in mutant spores after germination and increased to levels comparable to parent spores after 9 min of germination.
(10) The Ca++-form and H+-form spores of Clostridium botulinum 33A were investigated in vivo with respect to their water sorption and heat-resistance characteristics.
(11) Salt concentrations slightly lower than those providing inhibition tended to extend spore outgrowth time at low temperatures.
(12) The AL spores and the GN spores were morphologically distinct.
(13) Studies demonstrated the fact that there are present within the malignant cell and in the immediate area bacterial spores arising from one of several varieties of plant bacteria.
(14) The stages observed were diplokaryotic cells, sporogonial plasmodia, unikaryotic sporoblasts, and spores.
(15) The rod-shaped organism was motile, did not form spores, and had a gram-negative wall structure.
(16) Numerous factors influenced its activity: method of spore production, inherent spore resistance characteristics, alkalination, storage time and storage temperature.
(17) The inoculum level of infected spores in nutrient broth-yeast extract-glucose medium affected the transducing efficiency of SP-10 in lysates of these cultures.
(18) It can be dissociated from the spores using divalent metal chelators and will reassemble on the spores in the presence of calcium.
(19) Stable messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) was shown to be involved in both enterotoxin synthesis and synthesis of other spore coat proteins in Clostridium perfringens.
(20) Effects of alpha- or beta-D-glucose on the respiration of germinated spores (only germinated spores not including swollen spores and elongated spores) of Bacillus subtilis and B. megaterium were studied.
