A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of the nucleus. A biological process that directly contributes to the process of producing new individuals by one or two organisms. The new individuals inherit some proportion of their genetic material from the parent or parents. A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of an organelle within a cell. An organelle is an organized structure of distinctive morphology and function. Includes the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, vesicles, ribosomes and the cytoskeleton. Excludes the plasma membrane. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of spermatid nuclear differentiation. The specialization of the spermatid nucleus during the development of a spermatid into a mature male gamete competent for fertilization. Any process that is carried out at the cellular level, but not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of spermatid nuclear differentiation. A process, occurring at the cellular level, that is involved in the reproductive function of a multicellular or single-celled organism. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of spermatid nuclear differentiation. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of a male gamete over time, from initial commitment of the cell to a specific fate, to the fully functional differentiated cell. The process whereby a relatively unspecialized cell acquires the specialized features of a spermatid cell. The change in shape of the spermatid nucleus from a spherical structure to an elongated organelle, during the latter part of spermatid differentiation. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of an immature germ cell over time, from its formation to the mature structure (gamete). A germ cell is any reproductive cell in a multicellular organism. The progressive compaction of the spermatid chromatin so that it reaches a level of condensation that is not compatible with nuclear activities such as transcription or DNA replication.
