👉 A zoosporocyst is a type of fungus that grows on or in the skin of plants. These fungi are known for their ability to produce spores, which can be dispersed by insects and other animals. Zoosporocysts have been found in various parts of the world, including forests and grasslands, as well as in some aquatic environments. They are important for nutrient cycling in many ecosystems, and they play a role in soil health and plant growth.
