Unit 2 Biodiversiy
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Phylum Zygomycota | Spores disappeared by air Hyphae with little or no septa Rhizopus = black bread mold Reproduction |
| Phylum Ascomycota | Largest class Free, living and symbiotic Spores disappear by air Septate hypae with perforations Ascus/spores sacs from ascocarp Reproduction |
| Phylum Ascomycota Representatives | Cheese, wine bread Morels and Truffles Penicillin Peziza Claviceps and Rye |
| Phylum Deuteromycota | Imperfect fungi Sexual reproduction not observed |
| Phylum Deuteromycota Representatives | Molds Ringworms Predatory fungi |
| Phylum Basidiomycota | Spores disappear by air Sepate hyphae Basidium -> Basidiocarp |
| Phylum Basidiomycota Representatives | Mushrooms Toadstools Puff balls Bracket fungi Fairy rings |
| Lichens | Association between fungi and either algae or cyanbacteria Algae provides food while fungi provides structural positioning for photosynthesis |
| Mycorrhizae | Importance association between roots of “ most plants” and fungi Host plant provide food for fungi while water and minerals uptake by plants are enhanced by fungal hyphae |
| Reproduction Methods | Synapse- Fertilization Plasmogamy- Fusion of cytoplasm from two different cell types Karyogamy- what time?mit get to leaveotic cell division begin before nuclei fuse Dikaryon- creating a transition ploidy |
