Mycorrhizal
• Association with a vascular plants
• Septate hyphae
o Nuclei separated by cell wall
o Formation of septum after nuclear division
• Mycelium – hyphae network
• Sexual reproduction
- under unfavorable condition

Fungal reproduction…sexual
• Start with a pheromones production
5 divisions :
• Chytridiomycota
• Zygomycota
• Ascomycota
• Basidiomycota
• Deuteromycota
Chytridiomycetes
• Division Chytridiomycota
• Example : Allomyces
Reproduction of chytridiomycetes
• Phylum/division Zygomycota
• Heterothallic
• When the thallus grow very close, hormones
is produced
• Forming zygosporangium
• Rhizopus oligosporus
Ascomycetes
• Phylum/division Ascomycota
• Phylum/division Basidiomycota
• Forming 2° mycelium
• Basidiocarps structure :
- Cap
Lower surface of cap consist of gills that
contain basidia
- Stalk
• Haploid nuclei in basidia undergo karyogamy
forming zygote
• Important
- Penicillium synthesize Penicillin
Lichen
Lichens
• Symbiotic organisms
• Crustose
• Squamulose
• Foliose
• Fructicose
Cructose
• Crustlike form
• Flattened in shape
• Shrubby lichens
