Presentation Transcript

  1. Kingdom Fungi Phylum:Zygomycota (Sporangium Fungi) Phylum:Basidiomycota (Club Fungi) Phylum:Ascomycota (Cup Fungi & Yeasts) Phylum:Mycophycota (Lichens)

  2. Phylum:Zygomycota

  3. Phylum:Zygomycota • Common name: Spore fungi • Habitat: land/aquatic/host organisms • Nutrition: Heterotrophic (parasitic and saprophytic)

  4. Phylum:Zygomycota • Special structures: Spores in caps(sporangia) • Reproduction: spores, zygospores • Economic/Biological Importance: decomposers, cause of potato blight • Examples: Rhizopus stolonifer (bread mold)

  5. Phylum:Basidiomycota

  6. Phylum:Basidiomycota • Common name: Club fungi • Habitat: land/host organisms • Nutrition: Heterotrophic (parasitic and saprophytic)

  7. Phylum:Basidiomycota • Special structures: Spores in basidia(club-like structures on gills of mushroom) • Reproduction: spores • Economic/Biological Importance: food(edible mushrooms, parasites on grain crops like wheat, oats, rye) • Examples: Amanita phalloides (death cap) poisonous mushroom

  8. Phylum:Ascomycota

  9. PhylumAscomycota • Common name: Sac/Cup fungi • Habitat: land/aquatic/host organisms • Nutrition: Heterotrophic (parasitic and saprophytic)

  10. Ascomycota • Special structures: Spores in ascus (sac-like structures) • Reproduction: spores/budding • Economic/Biological Importance: making cheese, baking and brewing, causes athlete’s foot and ringworm • Examples: Saccharomyces cerevisiae (bread yeast)

  11. Mycophycota • Common name: Lichen • Habitat: land/aquatic/host organisms • Nutrition: Autotrophic/Heterotrophic

  12. Fruticose (fruit) Foliose (foliage. leaf-like) Crustose (crusty) Lichens: Phylum Mycophycota

  13. Mycophycota • Special structures: “Dual” organism made of fungi(heterotroph-provides water and minerals) and algae(autotroph-makes food) • Reproduction: spores/binary fission • Economic/Biological Importance: first organism on bare rock; helps to start soil; food for reindeer • Examples: Cladonia cristatella

  14. hyphae: thin filaments of tube-shaped mass of cytoplasm with many nuclei mycelium: a mat of filaments composed of a mass of hyphae rhizoids: root-like organ of certain fungi; help to break down food into simpler substances Kingdom Fungi – Vocabulary

  15. basidia: a club-like structure that forms the sexual spores in certain fungi ascus: saclike structure that produces sexual spores by meiosis spore: reproductive cell capable of developing into new haploid organisms without fusing with another cell Kingdom Fungi – Vocabulary
