Term Information

Accession: PO:0030037
Name: spore capsule calyptra
Ontology: plant_anatomy
Synonyms: caliptra de la cápsula productora de esporas (Spanish, exact), spore capsule calyptrae (exact, plural), コケ類　蘚帽 (Japanese, exact)
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: A cardinal organ part (PO:0025001) that develops from an archegonium (PO:0025126) and is a cap or hood enclosing the sporangium (syn: spore capsule; PO:0025094). Source: ISBN:9780473067304, ISBN:0962073342
Comment: Found in bryophytes. The spore capsule calyptra is a membranous or hairy cap or hood, composed of gametophytic tissue (venter; PO:0030038) that protects the embryonic sporophyte within the archegonium (PO:0025126). In some species, it may persist after the sporophyte develops and gets carried upward as the seta (PO:0030032) elongates. The spore capsule calyptra is usually lost before the spores are released, and its shape can be used for identification purposes.
