Club fungi description
Club fungi description- Basidiomycetes are often called club fungi because the cells (basidia) that bear the sexual spores resemble a small club Produced during its sexual cycle, it can bear millions of spores on clubshaped basidia located on the surface of its gills It is a morphologically complex tissue and forms structures such as the typically mushroomshaped basidiocarps commonly seen in nature Sexual reproduction of the club fungi begins upon fusion of two primary hyphae to form a clubshaped structure, known as a basidium
Characteristics Basidiomycota are unicellular or multicellular, sexual or asexual, and terrestrial or aquatic Indeed, Basidiomycota are so variable that it is impossible to identify any morphological characteristics that are both unique to the group and constant in the groupA small clubshaped structure typically bearing four basidiospores at the ends of minute projections eukaryote A cell that contains a nucleus and membrane bound organellesFungi reproduce by releasing spores from a fruiting body The fruit, called a mushroom, releases spores into the air, and the wind carries the spores off to start the next generation Around 100,000 species of fungi are divided into five phyla, based largely on the characteristics of their reproductive organs Club Fungi (Basidiomycota)
Read this BiologyWise article, which explains various characteristics of fungi The plural of fungus is "fungi", and it is one of the five kingdoms of organisms Kingdom Fungi is further grouped into four major subgroups;Ans i) They are multicellular and eukaryotic organisms, ii) They do not have chlorophyll of their own, iii) Cell wall is made up of chitin, iv) Their body is formed of threadlike filamentous structures called hyphae, and v) Their mode of nutrition is saprophytic or parasitic They can be either singlecelled or multicellular organism Fungi consist of long threadlike structures known as hyphae These hyphae together form a meshlike structure called mycelium Fungi possess a cell wall which is made up of chitin and polysaccharides
Fungi are heterotrophic organisms Fungi are filamentous, with the exception of unicellular yeasts The network of hyphae is known as mycelium Some hyphae are continuous tubes filled with multinucleated cytoplasm, these are called coenocytic hyphae and others have septae or cross walls in their hyphae The cell walls of fungi are composed of Morels are Ascomycete Fungi 21 Basidiomycete or Club Fungi 22 Life Cycle of Basidiomycete Fungi 23 Bracket Fungi Puff Balls Mushrooms Jelly Fungi Basidiomycete Fungi that all produce Basiospores 24 Other Basidiomycetes Rusts and Smuts Rust infecting wheat leaves Rust infecting a Leaf Whitrot Smut digesting old wood 25They are imperfect fungi , sac fungi , club fungi , and conjugating fungi
The clavarias, or club fungi (eg, Clavaria, Ramaria), are shrublike, clublike, or corallike in growth habit One club fungus, the cauliflower fungus ( Sparassis crispa ), has flattened clustered branches that lie close together, giving the appearance of the vegetable cauliflower This phylum contributes fungi used to make beer, bread, cheese, and medicines Examples include Aspergillus and Penicillium Phylum Basidiomycota The club fungi, or basidiomycetes, belonging to the phylum Basidiomycota produce basidiospores on clubshaped structures called basidia The phylum includes most common mushrooms, smut fungi, and rustThe "male" strain produces an antheridium and the "female" strain develops an ascogonium At fertilization, the antheridium and the ascogonium combine in plasmogamy without nuclear fusion Special ascogenous hyphae arise, in which pairs of nuclei migrate one from the "male" strain and one from the "female" strain
What are the 5 characteristics of fungi?Edible mushrooms, noxious plant pathogens rusts and smuts, puffballs, and bracket/shelf fungi are all club fungi Basidiomycetes are called so for their characteristics, clubshaped (hence also called club fungi) sexual reproductive structure, the basidium (plural basidia)The division of fungi known as the club fungi, Basidiomycota, includes some of the most familiar fungi Mushrooms, puffballs, and shelf fungi are all members of this group, as are the plant rusts and smuts This group, which contains approximately 15,000 known species, is distinguished by the presence of a club shaped reproductive organ called the basidium
These are among the most familiar fungi;Club fungi can reproduce asexually, but sexual reproduction is more common They reproduce using spores Development Sac fungi grow hyphae from the spore The mycelia have a huge surface area Examples Some examples of club fungi include mushrooms, polypores, puffballs, boletes, and bird's nest fungiCharacteristics of members of the Kingdom Fungi 4 are NOT plants because a Plants are autotrophs and fungi are heterotrophs Plants use photosynthesis to make their own food using chlorophyll and accessory pigments Fungi do not!
Club fungi belong to the phylum Basidiomycota This phylum alongside the phylum Ascomycota constitutes the fungal subkingdom Dikarya The Dikarya subkingdom is considered to 3 Other sac fungi have important uses a Penicillium is used as an antibiotic and to flavor some cheeses b Aspergillus flavors soy sauce and is also used in soft drink production 224 Basidiomycetes—The Club Fungi Club fungi include mushrooms, shelf fungi, coral fungi, puffballs, and stinkhorns 1Club fungi (mushrooms), shelf/bracket fungi, smuts and rusts fruiting body of basidiomycetes Reproductive structures that produce sexual spores Spores produced in the basidia of

Characteristics of Fungi Fungi are eukaryotic, nonvascular, nonmotile and heterotrophic organisms They may be unicellular or filamentous They reproduce by means of spores Fungi exhibit the phenomenon of alternation of generation Fungi lack chlorophyll and hence cannot perform photosynthesis7) Describe the characteristics of the following fungal groups, include common names, replication, and example of fungi 1 Zygomycota aka conjugation fungi Black Bread Mold Zygomycota can produce spores either sexually, through conjugation, or asexually 2 Ascomycota aka sac fungi yeast, Penicillium notatum, P roquefortii, P camemberti, candida albicansBasidiomycota The Club Fungi The fungi in the Phylum Basidiomycota are easily recognizable under a light microscope by their clubshaped fruiting bodies called basidia (singular, basidium ), which are the swollen terminal cell of a hypha
The five true phyla of fungi are the Chytridiomycota (Chytrids), the Zygomycota (conjugated fungi), the Ascomycota (sac fungi), the Basidiomycota (club fungi) and the recently described Phylum Glomeromycota The Deuteromycota is an informal group of unrelated fungi that all share a common character – they use strictly asexual reproductionFungi Characteristics Eukaryotes Cell walls made of chitin Mostly multicellular Heterotrophs (mostly decomposers) Hyphae Threadlike chains of cells that absorb nutrients Mycelium Club Fungi Examples Mushrooms, bracket fungi, and puffballs Club Fungi Reproduce using basidiaThe "male" strain produces an antheridium and the "female" strain develops an ascogonium At fertilization, the antheridium and the ascogonium combine in plasmogamy without nuclear fusion Special ascogenous hyphae arise, in which pairs of nuclei migrate one from the "male" strain and one from the "female" strain
ADVERTISEMENTS It is formed by the germination of a basidiospore and contains a single haploid (n) nucleus in each cell It bears neither sex organs nor any basidia and basidiosporesOne of the characteristics that is common to all sac fungi is that reproduce through ascospores borne on sac like ascusThe ascospores are released by breaking the wall of ascus The ascospores of different members may be of varying size, shape and colourIn higher Ascomycotina the ascus are borne inside a protected fruiting body known as ascocarp2 Club fungi have a clubshaped part which produces the spores 3 Sac Fungi produce spores in saclike structures EX yeasts, cup fungi, powdery mildews, & lichens Lichens 4 Types of Fungi a fungus and an organism with chlorophyll that live together •Example Mushrooms
