Conidiogenous cells can be found integrated within vegetative hyphae. Its conidia are dry, nonseptate or uniseptate, at the median. The conidia are thick-walled, globose to barrel-shaped, brown to black, and typically found with coarse surface ornamentation, dehiscing by schizolysis. Ramoconidia are absent.
A hypha consists of one or more cells surrounded by a tubular cell wall.In most fungi, hyphae are divided into cells by internal cross-walls called "septa" (singular septum).
Zygomycota, or zygote fungi, is a former division or phylum of the kingdom Fungi.The members are now part of two phyla: the Mucoromycota and Zoopagomycota. [1] Approximately 1060 species are known. [2]
Mucor mucedo (type species) use asexual reproduction. When erect hyphal sporangiophores are formed, the tip of the sporangiophore swells to form a globose sporangium that contains uninucleate, haploid sporangiospores.
Phycomycetes is an obsolete [1] [2] [3] polyphyletic taxon for certain fungi with aseptate hyphae. [4] It is used in the Engler system. [5] Asexual reproduction takes place by zoospores (motile) or by Aplanospores (non-motile).
The nonseptate hyphae are branched, intergrown with and penetrating the host hyphae. Entropezites hyphae penetrate host areas of necrotic tissue. The specimen sports a number of simple, hyaline conidiophores 7–10 μm in length which are borne upright from the hyphae.
This is a glossary of some of the terms used in phytopathology.. Phytopathology is the study of plant diseases. It is a multi-disciplinary science since prerequisites for disease development are the presence of a susceptible host species, a pathogen and the appropriate environmental conditions.
Candida albicans growing as yeast cells and filamentous (hypha) cells. A dimorphic fungus is a fungus that can exist in the form of both mold [1] and yeast.As this is usually brought about by a change in temperature, this fungus type is also described as a thermally dimorphic fungus. [2]
