Kind of Fungus FUNGI Examples of That Fungi How Sexual Reproduction is How Fungus is Classified and How the Structures are Named Zygomycetes bread molds Asexual: motile zoospores Sexual: sporangiospores Zygomyceta Allomyces fungi that make zygotes Ascomycetes Saccharomyces usually reproduce asexual. cells with normally incomplete septa, become isolated at the tips, Cerevisial Phylum Aspergillus making asexual spores or conidia Each conidia has Penicillium Asexual: conidiospores Sexual: ascospores Sac Fungi Basidiomycetes mushrooms Asexual: often absent Sexual: basidiospores Fruiting bodies include mushroom puffballs, brackets Gametangia occur when hyphae of different Phylum Basidiomycota Yeast, jelly fungi, mating types fuse and form cells that are Smuts and rusts dikaryotic. club fungi (microscopic fungi SR - starts when the two nuclei fuse to form zygotes that grow on plants) the sporophyte is a club-like reproductive structure, called the basidium occur on the underside of a mushroom called a basidiocarp or mushroom meiosis occurs in each basidium to produce 4 spores called basidiospores Glomeromycota tiny group of fungi only asexual reproduction known mycorrhizae (150 species) made via spores or fragmentation evolution of terrestrial plants possible Acaulospora
