And one with a full set of DNA, called the sporophyte generation because it makes spores.

一种具有全套 DNA，被称为孢子体一代，因为它产生孢子。

It took a while for my eyes to adjust, but I realised that the capsules had not swelled at all.

过了一会我的眼睛才适应过来，我意识到孢子体完全没有胀大。

Hours later, when I returned from my chores in the city, the sporophytes were still there, still holding water.

几个小时后，当我忙好城里的事情回来时，孢子体仍然在原地，仍然抓着水珠。

Down on my knees, at eye level with the bed, I reached out with a fingertip towards a sporophyte, but my hand stopped itself midway.

我双膝跪地，视线与墙藓齐平，向孢子体伸出指尖；但我的手停在了半途。

On top of that, seedless vascular plants — and all plants that evolved after them — have a dominant sporophyte, meaning that what we tend to recognize as the plant is actually its sporophyte generation.

最重要的是，无籽维管——以及在它们之后进化的所有——都有一个显性的孢子体，这意味着我们倾向于认为的实际上是它的孢子体一代。

In the game and in the show has fungus is able to reproduce by biting other humans or by contact with spores off of other humans that have these fruiting bodies sprouting off of them.

在游戏和节目中，真菌能够通过叮咬其他人或接触其他人的孢子来繁殖，这些孢子体从他们身上发芽。

As I carefully brush the backs of my fingers against moss beds, tiny stalk-like beings tickle me. Jutting out of moss leaves, these stalks are known as sporophytes; each sporophyte contains a capsule of spores at its outermost end.

当我小心翼翼地用手指背面扫过苔藓时，细小的茎状结构会挠得我发痒。这些茎从苔藓叶中探出来，被称为孢子体，每个孢子体的末端有一个孢子囊。

Having a dominant sporophyte introduced lots of advantages — like, while the spore-making generation of a bryophyte couldn't grow very far off the ground; the sporophytes of seedless vascular plants could grow much taller and larger, with more room for spore-producing organs.

拥有一个优势孢子体带来了很多好处——比如，苔藓的产孢体不能长得离地面很远；而无籽维管的孢子体可以长得更高更大，有更多的空间容纳产孢器官。
