(b) An embryo sac or embryonal vesicle in the ovules of flowering plants.Ģ. Compare Macrospore, Microspore, Oöspore, Resting spore, Sphærospore, Swarmspore, Tetraspore, Zoöspore, and Zygospore. The peculiar spores of diatoms (called auxospores) increase in size, and at length acquire a siliceous coating, thus becoming new diatoms of full size.
☞ Spores are produced differently in the different classes of cryptogamous plants, and as regards their nature are often so unlike that they have only their minuteness in common. (Bot.) (a) One of the minute grains in flowerless plants, which are analogous to seeds, as serving to reproduce the species. For more detailed information on all SPORE grants, please visit the NCI Funded Research Portfolio.Spore Spore (spōr), n. The NFRP provides access to various NCI budget reports that contain information about research funding according to specific research categories. The NCI Funded Research Portfolio (NFRP) web site contains additional information about the SPORE grants listed below that have been funded by NCI. For more information on these SPORE grants and organ sites, please visit the Translational Research Program. SPORE grants involve both basic and clinical/applied scientists, and support projects that will result in new and diverse approaches to the prevention, early detection, diagnosis, and treatment of human cancers.
The Translational Research Program (TRP) is the home of the SPOREs, a cornerstone of NCI’s efforts to promote collaborative, interdisciplinary translational cancer research.
Total funding shown represents the SPORE program using relevant P50s, P20s, U54s, and co-funded grants external to NCI. SPOREs are designed to enable the rapid and efficient movement of basic scientific findings into clinical settings, as well as to determine the biological basis for observations made in individuals with cancer or in populations at risk for cancer. Each SPORE focuses on a specific organ site, such as breast or lung cancer, or on a group of highly related cancers, such as gastrointestinal cancers. In 1992, the NCI established the Specialized Programs of Research Excellence (SPORE).
