Capsule (botany) → Capsule (fruit) – The word "capsule" has at least two distinct meanings in botany. When discussing flowering plants, it refers to a type of dehiscent fruit. But when discussing bryophytes, it refers to the single sporangium atop the sporophyte stalk. EncycloPetey (talk) 21:16, 6 July 2017 (UTC)
- Support. And "fruit" is a good choice of disambiguator, as it's already used by several entries in Category:Fruit morphology: Follicle (fruit), Nut (fruit), Samara (fruit). — Eru·tuon 22:51, 6 July 2017 (UTC)
- Support. I agree that "fruit" is a good disambiguator, more natural, common and precise than "botany." Jack N. Stock (talk) 00:56, 7 July 2017 (UTC)
- Support. More natural, more accurate. Peter coxhead (talk) 07:24, 7 July 2017 (UTC)
