Term Information

Accession
GO:0030435
Name
sporulation resulting in formation of a cellular spore
Ontology
biological_process
Synonyms
cellular spore formation by sporulation, spore biosynthesis, spore differentiation, spore formation
Alternate IDs
None
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.
