Presentation Transcript

  1. Mushrooms,molds, mildews yeast, rust, smutsClassified by reproductive structure

  2. Characteristics • Eukaryote • Unicellular to multicellular • Cell wall of chitin (insect bodies) • Body is made of Long filaments of hyphaewhich form a mycelium • Heterotrophs • Some are parasites • Some are saprophytes (decomposers)

  3. Phylum Zygomycota = the Bread Molds • Rhizopus – black bread mold • Phylum Oomycota= the Water Molds • Water mold, potato blight, mildew • Phylum Ascomycota = the Sac Fungi • Yeast, morels, truffles • Phylum Basidiomycota = the Club Fungi • Mushrooms, puffballs, bracket fungi, rusts, smuts, toadstools • Phylum Deuteromycota = the Fungi Imperfecti

  4. Parts of fungi: network of thin thread-like structures that form the “body” of a fungus Hyphae - • hyphaecontain cytoplasm • hyphae grow and branch until they cover and digest the food source (upon which the fungi is growing)

  5. Mycelium - a mass of hyphae • The mycelium is usually hidden in the soil, in wood, or another food source

  6. The part of the fungus that we see is only the “fruiting body” of the organism • The ‘living’ body of the fungus is a mycelium

  7. Puffball and a cloud of spores

  8. Sporangia of breadmold

  9. Pencillium

  10. Mushrooms – “Club Like” Fungi or Basidiomycete Fungi

  11. Bracket Fungi – Basidiomycete Fungi

  12. Cup Fungi – Ascomycete Fungi

  13. Zygomycota (Rhizopus) the Common Molds The fungal mass of hyphae, known as the MYCELIUM penetrates the bread and produces the fruiting bodies on top of the stalks

  14. Rhizoids = root-like hyphae The zhizoids meet underground and mating occurs between hyphae of different molds (SEXUAL REPRODUCTION)

  15. Morels are Ascomycete Fungi

  16. Basidiomycete or Club Fungi

  17. Smut on wood Rust on corn Rust on leaf

  18. Deuteromycota (Imperfect Fungi) Penicillium fungi

  19. Irish Potato Famine of 19th Century
