| Term | conidium formation | ID (Ontology) | GO:0048315 (Gene Ontology) |
| Definition | The process of producing non-motile spores, called conidia, via mitotic asexual reproduction in higher fungi. Conidia are haploid cells genetically identical to their haploid parent. They are produced by conversion of hyphal elements, or are borne on sporogenous cells on or within specialized structures termed conidiophores, and participate in dispersal of the fungus.[ ISBN:0963117211 PubMed:2524423 PubMed:9529886 ] | ||
