hyphae
are threadlike individual filament that make up Fungi
Mycelia(um)
the body of the fungus where the hyphae are organized into
Chitin
cells of fungi have cell wall made of chitin combined with other complex carbohydrates, including cellulose.
Sporangia(um)
when hyphae grow upright and develop sporangia, round structures on their tips.
Zygospore
is thick-walled 2n nuclei and develops when (+) and (-) hyphae fuse, and utimately, nuclei from opposite strains fuse to form 2n zygote nuclei.
coprophilous
is the what pilobolus crystallinus is called because its fungus that grows on dung.
Rhizopus Stolonifer
reproduced sexually and asexually. in asexual the sporangia are dispersed through air and in sexual two fungi one with (+) and (-) must grow near eachother.
Philobolus Crystallinus
member of phylum Zygomycota and only does asexual reproduction by the sporangia swelling and releasing all its spores at the same time.
Zygote Fungi (Zygomycota)
a common organism in the phylum and it member are pilobolus crystallinus and Rhizopus Stolonifer.
spore
is a reporductive structure that is adaptive for disperal and can survive a long time in favorable conditions. Are usually haploid and unicellular.
Sac Fungi (ascomycota)
includes edible fungi, morels,and truffles, but also includes several deadly plant and animal paracites.
ascopores
A sexually produced fungal spore formed within an ascus
ascus
is the sexual spore-bearing cell produced in ascomycete fungi
asci
the plural of ascus
ascocarp
asci forms withing the ascocarp which is a closed spherical structure that develops a pore at the top for dispersal.
conidia
are the name of the spores created in asexual reproduction and are produced on the surface of special reproducive hyphae.
bubbing
yeast most commonly forms this way by budding process in which small cells form by pinching off the parent cell.
Morals
mushrooms appear honeycomb-like in that the upper portion is composed of a network of ridges with pits between them.
Peziza
has a cup shaped ascocarp with asci within cup (look like alice and wonderland teacups)
Cup Fungi
fungi with cup-shaped ascocarp
Ergot Fungus
also called Claviceps purpurea that paracitic to certain grains and grasses.
Imperfect Fungi (Deuteromycota)
when the sexual reproductive stages of the fungi don't exist or are not found.ex. ring worm and athlets foot
Blue cheese
is a good imperfect fungi in the species penicillum that produces the anitbotic penicilin but also used to make blue cheese
Lichens
are symbiotic associations betw. fungi and usually algae or cyanobacteria that forms a body easyily recongizable.
thallus
is the lichen body
Symbiosis
commonly describes close and often long-term interactions between different biological species.
foliose
a leafy thallus
crustose
crust-like thallus
Fruticose
a cylindrical thallus
Mushrooms
is the fleshy, spore-bearing fruiting body of a fungus, typically produced above ground on soil or on its food source. Ascomycota and the woody or leathery fruiting bodies of some Basidiomycota
Shelf Fungi
are fungi, in the phylum Basidiomycota. They produce shelf- or bracket-shaped fruiting bodies (conks) that lie in a close planar grouping of separate or interconnected horizontal rows.
Gametangia
is an organ or cell in which gametes are produced that is found in many multicellular protists, algae, fungi, and the gametophytes of plants. In contrast to gametogenesis in animals, a gametangium is a haploid structure and formation of gametes does not involve meiosis
germinating Zygospore
the process whereby growth emerges from a period of dormancy;growth of hyphae from fungal spores, is also germination
Coprinus
The genus Coprinus is a small genus of mushrooms consisting of Coprinus comatus (the shaggy mane) and several of its close relatives
Club Fungi (Basidiomycota)
More specifically the Basidiomycota include mushrooms, puffballs, stinkhorns, bracket fungi, other polypores, jelly fungi, boletes, chanterelles, earth stars, smuts, bunts, rusts, mirror yeasts
Rhizoid
In fungi, rhizoids are small branching hyphae that grow downwards from the stolons that anchor the fungus
Zygospore
zygospore is a reproductive part of a fungus, a chlamydospore that is created by the nuclear fusion of haploid hyphae of different mating types.
