The name Zygomycota refers to the zygosporangia characteristically formed by the members of this clade, in which resistant spherical spores are formed during sexual reproduction. Zygos is Greek for "joining" or "a yoke ", referring to the fusion of two hyphal strands which produces these spores, and -mycota is a suffix referring to a division ...
Endogonales is an order of fungi within the phylum of Zygomycota, [2] and in class Endogonomycetes. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] It contains 2 families ; Endogonaceae , with 6 genera and 38 species and Densosporaceae , with one genera and 4 species.
The Zoopagomycotina are a subdivision (incertae sedis) of the fungal division Zygomycota sensu lato. [1] It contains 5 families and 20 genera. [2] Relationships among and within subphyla of Zygomycota are poorly understood, and their monophyly remains in question, so they are sometimes referred to by the informal name zygomycetes.
Endogone species are sporocarpic—they form a fruit body termed a sporocarp, on which spore-bearing structures are borne.The zygospores—a diploid reproductive stage in the life cycle—are formed above the point of union of two gametangia, or from a budding from the larger of the two. [8]
Basidiobolus haptosporus belongs to the Kingdom Fungi and is a member of a grouping known as the "zygomycetes".This classification comprises two Phyla- the Mucoromycota and the Zoopagomycota, which are characterized by the production of sexual zygospores and suspensor cells.
Mucoralean classification has traditionally been based on morphological, developmental, and ecological characteristics. Recently, molecular data has revealed that some aspects of traditional classification are quite artificial.
Mucoromycotina is a subphylum of uncertain placement in Fungi. It was considered part of the phylum Zygomycota, but recent phylogenetic studies have shown that it was polyphyletic and thus split into several groups, it is now thought to be a paraphyletic grouping.
