Members of the Kingdom Fungi and simple plants such as algae reproduce through special asexual reproductive structures. The most common of these structures are zoospores that usually are microscopic motile structures. Other common asexual reproductive structures are Zoospores of Chlamydomonas, conidia (Penicillium), buds (Hydra) and gemmules (sponge).

In plants, the term vegetative reproduction is frequently used in place of asexual reproduction. Plants use various vegetative propagule units such as runners of grasses, rhizome of ginger, tuber of potato, offset of water hyacinth and bulbil of agave are all capable of giving rise to new offspring.
