Ascomycota is a phylum of the kingdom Fungi that, together with the Basidiomycota, forms the subkingdom Dikarya. Its members are commonly known as the sac fungi or ascomycetes. It is the largest phylum of Fungi, with over 64,000 species. [3]
The Hypocreales are an order of fungi within the class Sordariomycetes.In 2008, it was estimated that it contained some 237 genera, and 2647 species in seven families. [1] ...
The name Sordariomycetes is derived from the Latin sordes (filth) because some species grow in animal feces, though growth habits vary widely across the class. In 2013, it consisted of 3 subclasses, 12 orders , 600 genera and 3000 species, [ 5 ] Then by 2015, it had 3 subclasses, 28 orders, 90 families and 1344 genera . [ 1 ]
Peziza cerea, commonly known as the Cellar Cup is a species of ascomycete fungus in the genus Peziza, family Pezizaceae.In common with other ascomycetes the upper surface of the fungus has a layer of cylindrical spore producing cells called asci, from which the ascospores are forcibly discharged.
Dothideomycetes is the largest and most diverse class of ascomycete fungi.It comprises 11 orders 90 families, 1,300 genera and over 19,000 known species. [1] [2] Wijayawardene et al. in 2020 added more orders to the class.
Pezizomycetes are a class of fungi within the division Ascomycota. Pezizomycetes are apothecial fungi, meaning that their spore-producing/releasing bodies ( ascoma ) are typically disk-like, bearing on their upper surfaces a layer of cylindrical spore-producing cells called asci , from which the spores are forcibly discharged.
Microascaceae species have spherical to irregularly shaped, darkly colored fruit bodies.They are usually hairy and rarely smooth. The smooth spores are reddish brown to copper colored, one-celled, and have a germ pore at one or both ends.
The fruitbody is part of the sexual phase of a fungal life cycle, [1] while the rest of the life cycle is characterized by vegetative mycelial growth and asexual spore production. The sporocarp of a basidiomycete is known as a basidiocarp or basidiome , while the fruitbody of an ascomycete is known as an ascocarp .
