PHYLUM ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION ACCOMPLISHED VIA... NAME + DESCRIBE THE SEXUAL REPRODUCTIVE STRUCUTURES LABELLED SKETCH OF SEXUAL SPORE PRODUCING STRUCTURE Chytridiomycota (the motile cell fungi) - Sporangia that produce spores - Spores are flagellated and swim to new habitats. Flagellated, swimming gametes Zygomycota (the yoke fungi) Ascomycota (the sac fungi) Sac-like asci that produce ascospores and are contained in a fruiting body called an ascocarp that is typically cup-shaped. Basidiomycota (the club fungi) Asexual reproduction less common than in other groups; when it occurs, is via conidia produced on conidiophores or fragmentation.

PHYLUM ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION SEXUAL REPRODUCTION Chytridiomycota: The Chytrids ASEXUAL reproduction by zoospores (produced in zoosporangia). Do not perform SEXUAL reproduction. Zygomycota: The Coenocytic True Fungi SEXUAL reproduction through conjugation of 2 different mating strains. SEXUAL reproduction through the union of male and female structures, followed by formation of asci. Ascomycota: The Sac Fungi ASEXUAL reproduction by conidia (produced on tips of conidiophores) or budding. ASEXUAL reproduction by spores (produced in sporangia). Basidiomycota: The Club Fungi ASEXUAL reproduction by conidia. SEXUAL reproduction by fusion of 2 mating types of monokaryotic hyphae. Resulting dikaryotic mycelium often develops basidiomata. Deuteromycota: The Imperfect Fungi ASEXUAL reproduction is rare, but can occur by conidia. SEXUAL reproduction through fusion of two motile or non-motile gametes

The asexual spores produced by members of the phylum Ascomycota are called: A. mycorrhizae B. mushrooms C. asci D. conidia Q2) How many ascospores are present in each ascus of most Agaricomycotina? A. 2 B. 6 C. 8 D. 4 3) The --------------- is the fertile layer in which meiospores are produced in Ascomycota and Agaricomycotina. 4) The ---------- is the darkly pigmented overwintering spore for Pucciniomycotina. 5) In Oomycota, the female gametangium is the ----------- and the male gametangium is the --------

Fungal Phylum Distinguishing Features Example Cryptomycota (cryptomycetes) Parasites with flagellated spores Microsporidia (microsporidians) Parasitic cells that form resistant spores Chytridiomycota (chytrids) Flagellated spores Zoopagomycota (zoopagomycetes) Resistant zygosporangium as sexual stage Mucuromycota (mucuromycetes) Include fungi that form arbuscular mycorrhizae with plants Ascomycota (ascomycetes) Sexual spores (ascospores) borne internally in sacs called asci; vast numbers of asexual spores (conidia) produced Basidiomycota (basidiomycetes) Elaborate fruiting body (basidiocarp) containing many basidia that produce sexual spores (basidiospores)
