In a dry rot, the storage organ becomes hard and dry, and in some diseases, there is rapid loss of water and the infected organs become shriveled, wrinkled, and leathery.

In Drosophila species, a large group of enzymes known as serine proteases have been associated with female sperm storage organs ( most notably, the spermatheca ) through genetic sequencing and analysis.
33.
If the infected storage organs are being used to propagate the plant, or if infected seed was produced, then when spring comes the bacteria will begin to grow just as its host does.

The term pseudobulb is used to distinguish the above-ground storage organ from other storage organs derived from stems that were underground, namely corms or true bulbs, a combination of an underground stem and storage leaves.

During mating, the male redback attempts to copulate by inserting one of its palps into the one of the female's two spermathecae ( sperm storage organs ), each of which has its own insemination orifice.
37.
It has been found that because of female choice ( see sexual selection ), phyla have a specialized sperm-storage organ called the spermatheca in which the sperm of different males sometimes compete for increased reproductive success.
38.
Bulbous plants, on the other hand, have developed storage organs as a reserve to allow them to survive unfavourable conditions in a resting condition in order to begin growth again when environmental conditions become more favourable.
39.
These epiphytes have pseudobulbs, water-storage organs, and large, fleshy roots that require a porous medium with excellent drainage such as fir bark, shredded tree-fern fiber, various kinds of rock, processed coconut fiber or a peat moss and perlite mix.

In some plants, such as the carrot, the taproot as a storage organ is so well developed that it has been cultivated as an edible plant, for which its storage capacity has been exaggerated by selection for size and palatability.
