Having or containing gonidia, which are asexual reproductive cells found in certain algae and fungi.
From Greek gonos (seed, generation) + idion (small form) + -ose (full of). The suffix -ose indicates an abundance or quality, making this term describe organisms rich in reproductive cells.
Gonidia are nature's way of making copies without a mate—these single-celled reproductive units let green algae spread rapidly through water, which is why pond scum can take over so quickly.
