Mycota [fungi ]

  1. Phycomycetes [ Algal fungi ]
  2. Ascomycetes [ sac fungi, pigmented class,colorful class ]
  3. Basidiomycetes [ bracket fungi ,puffballs, Masroom (agaricus) ]
  4. Deuteromyctes [ fungi imperfecti = sexual reproduction unknown ] 

Phycomycetes [ Algal fungi ]

coenocytic, aseptate mycelium
Habitat:-
  1.  decaying wood, in moist
  2. Dampe place or parasite on plants (eg Albugo)
  3. Largely aquatic
Other name:- Algal fungi
Reproduction :- 
  • Vegetative - Fragmentation 
  • Asexual - Zoospore, Aplanospore
  • Sexual - Oospore, Zygospore formation
Example :-
  1. Zygomycetes { 1. mucor ( bread mould )   2. Rhizopus
  2. Oomycetes { Phtophthora infestants ( late blight of potato) = femine of ireland

Ascomycetes [ sac fungi, pigmented class,colorful class ]

Branched ,septate mycelium

Habitat:- [SPDC]
  1. saprophytic
  2. parasitic
  3. dicomposer
  4. coprophilous

Other name:-[ sac fungi, pigmented class,colorful class ]

Reproduction :-

  1. Vegetative - Fragmentation 
  2. Asexual - Conidia
  3. Sexual -   Ascospore = somatogami = Dikariyon (n + n ) 

Example :- [ ACN M BT ]

  1. Aspergillus niger = citric acid 
  2. Clavicep
  3. Nerospora
  4. Morals, Buffles, Truffles = Edible &  delicious 
Aspergillus niger 

Clavicep


Basidiomycetes [ bracket fungi ,puffballs, Masroom (agaricus) ]


Branched ,septate mycelium

Habitat:-  In soil , On logs & tree stumps , parasitic on plants 

Other name:-[ bracket fungi ,puffballs, Masroom (agaricus) ]

Reproduction :-

  1. Vegetative - Fragmentation 
  2. Asexual - 
  3. Sexual -   Basidiospore = somatogami = Dikariyon (n + n )
Example :- Puccinia, ustilago , Toadstool- Poisonous mushrooms  


ustilago

Deuteromyctes [ fungi imperfecti = sexual reproduction unknown ] 


Branched ,septate mycelium

Habitat:- Mainaly  on dead organic matter, saprophytes, Decomposer

Other name:-[ fungi imperfecti = sexual reproduction unknown ] 

Reproduction :-
