Which of the following definitions best describes 'regulation of sporocarp development involved in sexual reproduction'?

A. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of cleistothecium development, a process that leads to the formation of a cleistothecium. The cleistothecium is a closed sexual fruiting body that contains ascospores in linear asci, characteristic of some filamentous Ascomycete fungi such as members of the genera Aspergillus and Emericella.
B. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of aecium development, a process in which a cuplike structure containing chains of aeciospores is formed.
C. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of sporocarp development involved in sexual reproduction.
D. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of sporocarp development involved in sexual reproduction.

Answer: Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of sporocarp development involved in sexual reproduction.
