• Chapter 31 ~ Fungi

Fungi • Heterotrophic by absorption (exoenzymes) • Decomposers (saprobes), parasites, mutualistic symbionts (lichens) • Hyphae: body filaments •septate (cross walls) •coenocytic (no cross walls) • Mycelium: network of hyphae • Chitin cell walls (polysaccharide)

Fungus Life Cycle

QuickTimeª and a Cinepak decompressor are needed to see this picture.

Fungi Diversity, I • Phy: Chytridiomycota •aquatic fungi; chytrids •lineage closest to protists (flagella) • Phy: Zygomycota •Rhizopus (food mold) •mycorrhizae: mutualistic with plant roots •zygosporangia: resistant structure (freezing and drying)

Fungi Diversity, II • Phy.: Ascomycota •sac fungi • yeasts, truffles, morels, Sordaria •asci: sexual spores •conidia: asexual spores • Phy.: Basidiomycota • club fungus •mushrooms, puffballs, shelf fungus, rusts •basidiocarps: produce sexual spores

Specialized Lifestyles, I • Molds •only the asexual stage (asexual spores) •Penicillium (antibiotic, cheese) • Yeasts •unicellular, asexual budding •Saccharomyces (bread, alcohol)

Specialized Lifestyles, II •

Lichens • symbiotic association held in a hyphae mesh •alga provides food, fungus provides physical environment •pioneer organisms •air pollution detection



Mycorrhizae •root and fungi mutualism •found in 95% of vascular plants •exchange of organic minerals •increases absorptive surface of roots
