Ascus tiny, saclike structures in ascomycetes in which ascospores develop
Ascopore sexual spores of ascomycetes fungi that develop within an ascus
Conidium chains or clusters of asexual spores
Basidium club-shaped hyphae of basidiomycete fungi that produce spores
Basidiospore spores produced in the basidiomycetes during sexual production
Mycorrhiza mutualistic relationship in which a fungus lives symbiotically with a plant
