|
|
Fungi' Domain and Kingdom
|
Domain Eukarya

|
Fungal Symbionts
|
1) Lichens
2) Mycorrhizae(Haustoria)" fungus roots" |
|
Lichens
(1) Fungal Symbionts |
- Mutualistic relationship
with a fungus(Asmocyte or Basidiomycete), this relationship is called "Living Sponge" (water retention) -Autrophic "makes the food" ->Cyanobacteria or Chlorophyta(green algae) Note:The symbiotic collective formed by the mutualistic association between a fungus and a photosynthetic alga or cyanobacterium. |
|
Body forms of Lichens
|
1)Crustose
2)Foliose 3)Fruticose |
|
Crustose
(1)form of Lichen |
-Embed in the substrate
(Crust-like) |
|
Lichen are "Pioneer Organism"
|
Lichens are important pioneers on newly cleared rock and soil surfaces.They break down the surface by physically penetrating and chemically attacking it, and they trap windblown soil.
- Breakdown rock/stone into soil (Soil Genesis) - great environmental indicators |
|
Foliose
(2)Form of Lichens |
-" Leaf-like" thallus
-Crinkly edge -weakly attached to substrate (easy to pull out) |
|
Fruticose
(3)Form of Lichens |
-" Miniature upright shrub"
Ex. **"Pendent" Fruticose (pendent=hanging down) |
|
Mycorrhizae
(2) Fungal symbionts |
-Plant Roots and Fungi
-90% Plants have this association* -There are two types of Mycorrhizae: Endomycorrhizae, Ectomycorrhizae |
|
Plants dont have many root hairs
|
Because they have Mycorrhizae
-involve in absorption or minerals -protect roots during drought -protect roots from acidic soils -necessary for germination of orchid seeds |
|
Endomycorrhizae
(1)Type of Mycorrhizae |
-more common variety
-crop species:-Corn -penetrate outer root cells |
|
Ectomycorrhizae
(2)Type of Mycorrhizae |
-Trees, Shurbs
-*Surround the roots rather that penetrating |
|
Reproduction of fungi
|
1)Asexual reproduction
by Mitosis, budding 2)Sexual reproduction |
|
Fungal reproductive cycle
|
Haploid organisms produce gamate(+/-)that initially undergo plasmogamy. After several mitotic divisions of the Dikaryotic cell(two seperated nuclei) undergo Karyogamy to form a diploid zygote(only 2n in this cycle).Then undergo meiosis to return in haploid state and produce reproductive spores
|
|
Plasmogamy
|
The fusion of the cytoplasm of cells from two individuals; occurs as one stage of syngamy
|
|
Karyogamy
|
The fusion of nuclei of two cells, as part of syngamy.
|
|
Asexual spores
(1)type of spore |
"Conidia"
-Asexual spores produce directly from the cells of Hyphea |
|
Sporangiophore
|
Specialized Hyphae that produce asexual spores
|
|
Sexual spores
(2) type of spore |
-Maybe produced in sac like structure called "Ascus(e)"**
|
|
Spore
|
Unicellular reproductive cell that doesn't have to fuse with other cells to form individuals
|
|
"Fungi Are Haploid Organisms"
|
1)Haplonic life cycle
-dominant stage is Haploid 2)produce +gamete,-gamete 3)Plasmogamy(cytoplasm fuse) 4)Dikaryotic cell(two seperated nuclei) 5)Dikaryotic Organism ungergo Karyogamy(nuclei fuse) 6)Zygote(2n)undergo meiosis to return to haploid state.Then produce sexual spores--> 7) haploid organism |
