Pseudohyphae are distinguished from true hyphae by their method of growth, relative frailty and lack of cytoplasmic connection between the cells. Yeasts form pseudohyphae. [ 10 ] They are the result of a sort of incomplete budding where the cells elongate but remain attached after division.
A blastoconidium (plural blastoconidia) is an asexual holoblastic conidia formed through the blowing out or budding process of a yeast cell, which is a type of asexual reproduction that results in a bud arising from a parent cell. [1] [2] The production of a blastoconidium can occur along a true hyphae, pseudohyphae, or a singular yeast cell. [3]
The yeast has a negative effect on the bacteria that normally produce antibiotics to kill the parasite, so may affect the ants' health by allowing the parasite to spread. [41] Certain strains of some species of yeasts produce proteins called yeast killer toxins that allow them to eliminate competing strains. (See main article on killer yeast ...
The yeast forms branched pseudohyphae on potato agar. The yeast has been observed to form one or two sherical and warty ascospores when grown for at least one week on 5% Difco malt extract agar, and the ascospores are not released from the ascus. [1] The yeast can ferment glucose, but not sucrose, galactose, maltose, lactose, raffinose or ...
Rhodotorula glutinis is an aerobic yeast characterized by pink, smooth colonies with a moist appearance. [2] Reproduction is typically by multipolar budding although pseudohyphae are occasionally produced. Sexual reproduction is by basidiospores arising from a teliospore developed from a mycelial clamp connection. [2]
Cryptococcus neoformans is an encapsulated basidiomycetous yeast [1] belonging to the class Tremellomycetes and an obligate aerobe [2] that can live in both plants and animals. Its teleomorph is a filamentous fungus, formerly referred to Filobasidiella neoformans. In its yeast state, it is often found in bird excrement.
Saccharomycotina is a subdivision (subphylum) of the division (phylum) Ascomycota in the kingdom Fungi. [2] [3] It comprises most of the ascomycete yeasts.The members of Saccharomycotina reproduce by budding and they do not produce ascocarps (fruiting bodies).
Pseudohyphae and true hyphae (a long, branching, filamentous structure) are produced by some species. In sexual reproduction, it is found that the asci (spore bearing cell) may be unconjugated or show conjugation between a cell and its bud or between independent cells.
