Homosporous

Homosporous plants produce a single type of spore that gives rise to a bisexual gametophyte. This type of spore is typically small and produces both male and female gametangia. Homosporous plants do not differentiate between male and female spores, and rely on external factors such as environmental conditions for fertilization to occur. These plants are typically found in lower plant groups such as ferns and mosses.
