Aseptate (non-septate) or coenocytic (without septa) Non-septate hyphae are associated with Mucor , [ 9 ] some zygomycetes , and other fungi. Pseudohyphae are distinguished from true hyphae by their method of growth, relative frailty and lack of cytoplasmic connection between the cells.
Dark septate endophytes are plant root-colonizing fungi that are often darkly-pigmented, with septate hyphae, and form structures inside plant root cells such as microsclerotia. However, there is great variation in morphology within this group. Dark septate endophytes are observed more frequently in mature parts of the root system. [3]
Without having to look at the colony, the hyphae, or macroconidia, one can identify the dermatophyte by a simple color test. The specimen (scraping from skin, nail, or hair) is embedded in the DTM culture medium. It is incubated at room temperature for 10 to 14 days. If the fungus is a dermatophyte, the medium will turn bright red.
The hyphae are septate, branched, hyaline to brown (in colour). They have conidiogenous cells that are non–specialized, short, light to dark brown (in colour), lateral, solitary, helicoid (spiral shaped) and septate.
This fossil, classified in the form genus Palaeancistrus, has hyphae that compare with extant saprophytic basidiomycetes. [5] The oldest known clamp connections exist in fossilized hyphae growing in the fossil fern Botryopteris antiqua , which predate Palaeancistrus by about 25 Ma .
A single-celled, non-septate cell in mitosporic fungi; compare with dictyospore and phragmospore. [15] anamorph. Imperfect state. An asexual state of a fungus, characterized by the presence of conidia and the absence of sexual spore s. [16] anastomosis Fusion between branches of hyphae to make a network. [17] annellidic
These fluffy 'hairs', which really are branching, fine filamentous structures called hyphae, are divided inside by cell walls named septae (-> the hyphae are 'septate'). The walls of these hyphae contain dark pigments, which makes for their black appearance and which is called 'dematiaceous'. The hyphae produce brown spore bearing organs ...
The fungal hyphae forming the sheath around the photobiont filaments have a unique structure. They are greatly branched and anastomosing, creating a network that at first glance may appear to form a closed, almost paraplectenchymatous layer. However, closer examination reveals that they consist of distinct, septate hyphae.
