Kingdom fungi |
Two forms of fungi- molds and yeasts |
|
Molds |
Multicellular Asexual and sexual (spores) Hyphae |
|
Yeasts |
Unicellular Asexual only No spores No hyphae -no filament |
|
Hyphae |
Vegetative and reproductive hyphae ^ threadlike structure ^ spore structure Septate: has crosswalls (separations) Nonseptate/Coenocytic hyphae- no clear line of separation between one cell and another |
|
Mycelium |
Mass of hyphae |
|
Thalus |
Body of the fungus (part under surface) ex. Mushrooms - this can be miles of length |
|
Reproduction molds |
Reproductive spores Asexual and sexual Telemorphs and anamorphs |
|
Telemorphs |
Refers to molds that can reproduce a sexually and sexually |
|
Anamorphs |
Only Asexual reproduction |
|
Kingdom fungi- yeasta |
Nonfilaments Unicellular Asexual reproduction -budding, fissions, dimorphism |
|
Budding |
Copy DNA and grow a new cell on top of old one.. eventually cracks off when gets big enough |
|
Fission |
Way bacteria tend to reproduce |
|
Dimorphism |
Fungi can exist as either a mold or a yeast depending on conditions |
|
Example of yeast |
Candida albicans Microbe that causes yeast infection Normal microbiota Looks totally different outside of body than inside |
|
Fungi classification |
Based on the type of sexual spores 3 phyla |
|
3 phyla if fungi |
Phylum zygomycota Phylum ascomycota Phylum basidiomycota |
|
Phylum zygomycota |
Rhizopus Zygospores, Coenocytic hyphae |
|
Phylum ascomycota |
Aspergillus and Penicillium Ascospores, Septate, some yeasts |
|
Phylum basidiomycota |
Mushrooms Basiodiospores, septate |
|
Classification of fungi |
Has changed Deuteromycota Old category Fungi with no observed sexual stage Most are anamorphs of ascomycetes of basidiomycetes |
