whole parent cell is involved in the daughter cell development
conidia
daughter cell fragments within hyphen strand
arthric
asexual spores of zygomycetes
sporangiospores
dandelion-like appearance
sporangiospores
formation of septum stimulates new growth

microconidia
Chlamydoconidia is also known as?
chlamydospores
formed from the rounding up & enlargement of the hyphal segments
chlamydoconidia
conidia is on the tip/endpoint of the hyphae
Terminal chlamydoconidia
conidia is within the hyphal segment
Intercalary
Conidia is on the hyphal segment sides
Sessile
Arthroconidia is also known as?
arthrospores
rectangular/barrel shaped arthric
Arthroconidia
chain-like appearance due to fragmentation of mycelium at the septum
Arthroconidia
presence of empty/dysjunctor cells like joints & gives a checkered apperanceo
arthroconidia
Give common arthric organisms
Geotrichum
Trichophyton
Coccidioides immitis
sac-like structures from which sporangiophores arise
Sporangium
protrudes from the base of the columella
Collarette
extended enlarged tip of the sporangiophores
Columella

sporangiophore
connects one sporangiophore to another
stolon
Give 4 spores involved in sexual reproduction
- Ascospores
- Basidiospore
- Zygospore
- Oospore
sac fungi
molds with septate hyphae
ascospores
fruiting body:
hyphal elements in between asci:
exit point of ascopores:
fruiting body: ascocarp
hyphal elements in between asci: paraphyses
exit point of ascopores: apical pore
cup-shaped
ascu are produced inside a cup
apothecium
ascocarp is enclosed
no opening
cleistothecium
similar to cleistothecium
ascu are released through the wall openings
gymnothecium
asci are produced in locules (cavities) in hard masses of supporting hypha (stroma)
ascostroma
flask-shaped
has an opening where ascospores are released
perithecium
club fungi
“bas” = club-shaped
Basidiospores
spores produced on a basidium
basidiospores
