Q

describe the paraphyses of xylariales

A

develop from the bottom & sides of the perithecium causing an expansion - unique

Q

what is unique about Xylariales?

A

paraphyses develop from the bottom & sides of perithecium causing an expansion

21
Q

what are 3 genres in Xylariales?

A

xylaria

hypoxylon

daldinia

22
Q

describe the perithecia of Hypocreales

A

brightly coloured

on a stroma

form by the growth of pseudoparaphyses

sclerotia develop out of ergot, stroma form from sclerotia

23
Q

describe the paraphyses of Hypocreales

A

pseudoparaphyses - form by the growth of apical paraphsyes

exist on the inside of the venter & grow downwards

develop top downwards

24
Q

describe the asci of Hypocreales

A

ovoid to cylindrical

in a hymenium

formed by croziers

have apical pores in their thickened apex with or without an apical apparatus

25
Q

describe the spore dispersal of Hypocreales

A

forcibly discharged

26
Q

describe the anamorphic stage of Hypocreales

A

vary in a wide range of forms

27
Q

describe the substrate of Hypocreales

A

above ground plant substrate

28
Q

what type of lifecycle does Hypocreales have?

A

saprotrophic (plant) or pathogenic (plants & macrofungi)

29
Q

epichole

A

brightly coloured perithecia & stroma

30
Q

what are the genera in Hypocreales?

A

nectria

claviceps

epichloe

31
Q

what is unique about Hypocreales?

A

growth of pseudoparaphyses (apical growth) which attach to the bottom of the perithefcium

32
Q

what organism is responsible for Dutch Elm disease?

A

Opiostoma of Ophiostomatales

33
Q

describe the ascocarp of Opiostoma of Ophiostomatales

A

black perithecium

perithecium has a bulbous base & a long neck

the ostiole contains hairs holding the ascospores in a mucilaginous drop

34
Q

describe the asci & ascospores of Opiostoma of Ophiostomatales

A

ascospores are stuck together by the liquid of deliquesced asci

asci are in a basal facile (hymenium)

asci are globulose & deliquesce

formed by croziers

no periphyses or paraphyses

35
Q

describe the anamorphic stage of Opiostoma of Ophiostomatales

A

called sympodula

produced on leaves in the tunnels of bark-boring beetles

36
Q

describe the spore dispersal of Opiostoma of Ophiostomatales

A

insect dispersed

dispersed when in the asexual or sexual stages

37
Q

describe the type of lifecycle of Opiostoma of Ophiostomatales

A

saprotrophic or parasitic on wood

38
Q

describe the substrate of Opiostoma of Ophiostomatales

A

wood

39
Q

what are the unique features of Opiostoma of Ophiostomatales?

A

asci are in a basal facile (hymenium), globulose & deliquesce

no periphyses or paraphyses

40
Q

describe the perithecia of Creatocysits of Microascales

A

long necked

asci are scattered

no hymenium

41
Q

describe the asci of Creatocysits of Microascales

A

deliquesce early in development of the perithecium

globose & deliquiscent

42
Q

describe the spore dispersal of Creatocysits of Microascales

A

ascospores are released single file in a slime

insect dispersal

slime has a fruity smell which attracts insects

43
Q

describe the type of lifecycle of Creatocysits of Microascales

A

mostly parasites on plants

44
Q

describe the FB of Erysiphe of Eryisphales

A

Cleistothecia with various appendages

hair like appendages

45
Q

describe the asci of Erysiphe of Eryisphales

A

basal fascicles (hymenium)

club-shaped & not globose

46
Q

describe the spore dispersal of Erysiphe of Eryisphales

A

ascospores are forcibly discharged from asci by a squirt mechanism

spores then escape the FB through an opening created by pre-determined lines of weakness in the peridium

47

A

saprotrophs

48
