kingdom fungi is divided into 4 phyla:

1. ascomycota


2. zygomycota


3. Basidiomycota


4. Deuteromycota

which phylum accounts for about 80% of this kingdom?

ascomycota

the "sac" fungus because the ascocar, the fruiting body, looks like a sac

ascomycota

every member of this group produces a structure called an ascus in which karyogamy occurs producing the ascospores.

ascomycota

many of the imperfect fungus are a part of this phylum but we just group them as imperfect fungus because of their life cycles.

ascomycota

Lichen a relationship between a fungus and algae. symbiotic relationship "mutualistic" what phylum?

ascomycota

chestnut blight and dutch elm disease is caused by...

ascomycota

This phylum accounts for only about 1% of the kingdom

zygomycota

black bread mold


genus:

Rhizopus

black bread mold grows best on

sugary foods

no septa, cell walls separating the nuclei


hypha will come together and the nuclei in the both hypha will "conjoin" to form a gametangia which will produce a zygosporagium(spore holder) rather than a fruiting body.


in the phylum

zygomycota

The most evolutionary advanced of the fungus


phylum

basidiomycota

common toadstool is a member of the phylum

basidiomycota

the worlds oldest and largest organism known. mycelium. a mass of hypha, extends 2,200 acres in the mountains of oregon and has been growing over 8000 years.

phylum: basidiomycota

how do toadstools form a fairy ring?

the fruiting bodies that are produced from karyogamy on the secondary mycelium will use the nutrients from the sil and from the primary mycelium

why is the fairy ring formed?

it kills off the mycelium

under which phylum will you find the most poiseness mushrooms and ones that are hallucinogenic?

Basidiomycota

this fungus is called the "club" fungus because the structures found on the gills of the fruiting body look like small clubs.


class

basidia


basidiomycota

common toadstool, puff balls, the white angel of death, the death cap

basidiomycota

why is imperfect fungus imperfect?

because sexual reproduction has not been observed

mycologist

scientist that study fungus

some scientist believe that imperfect fungus has lost their sexual phase through what?

evolution

asexually imperfect fungus reproduce by what?

spores

asexually they reproduce by spores and many are parasitic

imperfect fungus

aspergillus on corn


penicillin


yeast


athletes foot


imperfect fungus

fungus must get their food from the environment which means they are

heterotrophic

what is the cell wall of fungus made up of

chiton

what is the cell wall of plants made up of

cellulose

because fungus is heterotrophic, they do not contain photosynthetic pigments such as

chlorophylla or chlorophyll b

fungi can reproduce sexually and asexually, and most do both. they do not undergo ____________.

pollination

when a small cell will break off from a larger cell and will grow into a new fungus. ex. yeast

budding

yeast, aspergillus and penicillium are under the phylum _______________. but are best to be recognized as _____________________.

asdcomycota


imperfect fungus

which fungus under the phylum ascomycota are parasitic

dutch elm and chestnut blight

which phylum is truffles and morels delicacies under?

ascomycota

which phylum is reffered to as "conjugating fungus"

zygomycota

mold that grows on bread


genus name

rhizopus



thick-walled reproductive sstructure formed from the fusion of the cytoplasm of the mycelia of two neighboring fungi

zygosporangium

toadstool and fairy rings phylum

basidiomycota

the primary mycelium will produce the secondary mycelium. as the secondary mycelium grows and expands, it feeds off the nutrients from the primary mycelium, leaving the cneter dead.

fairy rings


basidiomycota

has the largest, organism in the world

basidiomycota

bracket fungus and puff balls are

basidiomycota

while fungus is heterotrophic, theya are also ___________ which means they are decomposers.


they will literally sit on their food, secrete enzymes that breakdown their food source and then will absorb the nutrients.

saprobic

individual branching filaments that make up the mycelium of a fungus

hypha

a mass of hypha

mycelium

each fungal cell has only one nucleus

monokaryotic

each fungal cell has two nuclei, they can be two of the smae type of nuclei or they can be two different nuclei

dikaryotic

two different nuclei per fungal cell. Remember, a fungal cell can be dikaryotic without being heteroharyotic, but herterokaryotic is DIKARYOTIC

Heterokaryotic

a mutualiatic relatiosnship between fungus and algae

lichen

the "bridge" that conneccts the Ascogonium and the Antheridium in Ascomycota during sexual reproduction

Trichogyne

there are four on the ends of basidia that release the basidiospores

sterigma

root-like structure that attaches the hypha to the substrate

rhizoid

smaller cells will break away from larger cells in some yeast

fragmentation

this phylum of fungus comvines with plant roots in a mychorrizal relationship

ascomycota

this phylum is also referred to as the "cup" fungus

ascomycota

what is the fruiting body of a cup fungus called?

ascocarp

why are chestnut blight and dutch elm disease considered to be imperfect fungus but are under the phyla ascomycota?

their reproductive processes.

yeast is a single celled fungus and therefore doesnt produce a _______.

hyphae

rhizopus stolonifer

black bread mold

terrestrial fungus but in order for them to grow the environment must be damp

zygomyocta

structure that holds the spores and can withstand extremely harsh environmental stresses

zygosproangia

rusts and smuts

basidiomycota

the most evolutionary advanced of any of the other fungal phyla

basidiomycota

armillaria ostoyae

root rot fungus

biggest living organism on earth

root rot fungus

bracket or shelf fungus

basidiomycota

the oldest of the fungi

chytridiomycota

the only fungus that has a motile sperm

chytridiomycota

the group of fungus is aquatic and their life cycles are similar to those of the slime and water molds athat are actually protists

chytridiomycota

trichophyton

athlete's foot

penicillium

penicillin

candida albicans
