The formation of spores derived from the products of mitosis. Examples of this process are found in Bacterial species. The biological process by which new individuals are produced by either a single cell or a group of cells, in the absence of any sexual process. The process by which oidia, a type of asexual spore found in fungi, are formed. Oidia are borne a few at a time on very simple hyphae that protrude a short distance into the substrate, and are usually presumed not to constitute the main reproductive strategy of the fungus. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of a spore over time, from its initiation to the mature structure. A spore is a structure that can be used for dissemination, for survival of adverse conditions because of its heat and dessication resistance, and/or for reproduction.
