Aplanogametangium
Definition
A unicellular or multicellular reproductive organ (gametangium) within which exclusively aplanogametes (non-motile gametes, lacking cilia or flagella) differentiate and form. This specialized anatomical structure ensures the early protection of non-motile sexual cells during their structural maturation stage, being specific to certain classes of lower plants and primitive fungi.
