Definitions

  1. organ containing or producing spores

Word origin

From Late Latin sporangium, from Ancient Greek σπορά (sporá, “seed”) + ἀγγεῖον (angeîon, “vessel”).

Used in a sentence

  • Asexual reproduction by the production of a bud in place of a sporangium is not uncommon.
  • The sporangia, however, are much larger: 3–4 mm long 0.7–1.1 mm in diameter versus only 1–1.5 mm long 0.5–0.8 mm in Corynepteris, and are characteristically banana shaped with a pair of elongate annuli.
