they infect/ harm amphibians because of human movement
Zygote Fungi
produce zygospore during reproduction
2 hyphi join and exchange genetic material into a zygospore= only diploid stage
-most of their life cycle is spent as a haploid mycelium
[They are common in moldy bread, fruit or veggies because they are sapping nutrients
Glameromycetes
Most important in plant root cells 90% of plants have an association with roots and fungi in soil. Micronutrients and and phosphates from soil exchange of rare micronutrients, and photosynthesis by the plants.
-They are known to produce asexual
-mutualism between fungi and roots
-fungi offers micronutrients
-plant offers sugars (carbohydrates)
-soil fungus= mycorrhizae
Club Fungi
Important decomposers of wood
have the largest most complex fruiting bodies of all fungi
Cap/ Stalk
Cap= underneath the cap are where the spores are reproduced
