| Term | blepharoplast | ID (Ontology) | GO:0097727 (Gene Ontology) |
| Definition | An intracellular non-membrane-bounded organelle found in multi-ciliated sperm cells of some primitive land plants, and consisting of many radially arranged ninefold symmetric cylinders. The blepharoplast is involved in de novo formation of multiple centrioles; it enlarges and then disintegrates into many procentrioles, which elongate and ultimately nucleate cilia on the surface of the sperm cell.[ PubMed:22691130 PubMed:25047614 ] | ||
