Hyaloraphidiales. Sanchytriomycetes [ 1 ] Sanchytriales. Chytridiomycota are a division of zoosporic organisms in the kingdom Fungi, informally known as chytrids. The name is derived from the Ancient Greek χυτρίδιον ( khutrídion ), meaning "little pot", describing the structure containing unreleased zoospores.
Intermediate minor rankings are not shown. In biology, a kingdom is the second highest taxonomic rank, just below domain. Kingdoms are divided into smaller groups called phyla (singular phylum). Traditionally, some textbooks from the United States and Canada used a system of six kingdoms ( Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, Protista, Archaea ...
Chytridiomycetes (/ k ɪ ˌ t r ɪ d i oʊ m aɪ ˈ s iː t iː z,-ˈ s iː t s /) is a class of fungi. Members are found in soil, fresh water, and saline estuaries. They are first known from the Rhynie chert. It has recently been redefined to exclude the taxa Neocallimastigomycota and Monoblepharidomycetes, which are now a phylum and a sister ...
Glomeromycota (often referred to as glomeromycetes, as they include only one class, Glomeromycetes) are one of eight currently recognized divisions within the kingdom Fungi, [ 3] with approximately 230 described species. [ 4] Members of the Glomeromycota form arbuscular mycorrhizas (AMs) with the thalli of bryophytes and the roots of vascular ...
Fungus. an Aspergillus conidiophore. A fungus ( pl.: fungi [ 3] or funguses [ 4]) is any member of the group of eukaryotic organisms that includes microorganisms such as yeasts and molds, as well as the more familiar mushrooms. These organisms are classified as one of the traditional eukaryotic kingdoms, along with Animalia, Plantae and either ...
Basidiomycota ( / bəˌsɪdi.oʊmaɪˈkoʊtə /) [ 2] is one of two large divisions that, together with the Ascomycota, constitute the subkingdom Dikarya (often referred to as the " higher fungi ") within the kingdom Fungi. Members are known as basidiomycetes. [ 3] More specifically, Basidiomycota includes these groups: agarics, puffballs ...
The opisthokonts (from Ancient Greek ὀπίσθιος (opísthios) 'rear, posterior' and κοντός (kontós) 'pole, i.e. flagellum ') are a broad group of eukaryotes, including both the animal and fungus kingdoms. [ 5] The opisthokonts, previously called the "Fungi/Metazoa group", [ 6] are generally recognized as a clade.
Fungi imperfecti. See below . The fungi imperfecti or imperfect fungi are fungi which do not fit into the commonly established taxonomic classifications of fungi that are based on biological species concepts or morphological characteristics of sexual structures because their sexual form of reproduction has never been observed. They are known as ...
