Kingdom Fungi (over 100 000 species)
Characteristics of fungi:1. Eukaryotic2. Multicellular (except for yeast)3. Heterotrophic :
a. lack chlorophyllb. digest food outside the by secreting
digestive enzymes into the surrounding area, breaking food molecules into smaller molecules which can be absorbed. They do this in one of 3
ways.
How Fungi Obtain Food i. Saprophyte:
- Fungus uses dead or dying organisms for its food source thereby recycling matter into its original elements.
How Fungi Obtain Food
ii. Parasite:- absorbs food
from a live host’s cell
- ex.Yeast infectionAthlete’s footRingworm
ringworm
How Fungi Obtain Food
iii. Symbiotic relationships in which two or more living organisms benefit.
Ex. Lichen which is actually a fungus and a photosynthetic organism (plant or bacteria).
The fungus gives an ability to retain moisture and protection from the elements. The photosynthetic organism gives food.
Kingdom Fungi continued
4. Fungi are made up of thin filaments called hyphae. Each hypha is only one cell thick.

Structure and Function of Fungi• In some fungi,
cross walls divide hyphae into cells with 1 or 2 nuclei.
• In the cross walls, there are openings through which the cytoplasm and nuclei can move.
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Structure and Function of Fungi• Some hyphae don’t have cross walls and
contain many nuclei.
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
• Fungus Structure
– The bodies of multicellular fungi are composed of many hyphae tangled together into a thick mass called a mycelium.
– The mycelium allows a large surface area to come in contact with the food source.

• Structure of a Typical Fungus
Hyphae
Fruiting body
Mycelium
• A fruiting body is a reproductive structure growing from the mycelium in the soil beneath it.
Kingdom Fungi continued5. Cell walls of Fungi are made of chitin, a
complex carbohydrate.(Same substance in lobster shells.)
6. Most fungi reproduce sexually and asexually.
Asexual Reproduction
• Asexual reproduction takes place wheni. cells divide (binary fission)
ii. cells or hyphae break off from a fungus and begin to grow on their own (fragmentation). Ex. Athlete’s foot
iii. a part of the cell pinches off to form new cells (budding) Ex. yeast
iv. spores are produced and then scatter and grow. Ex. most fungi
Conidia and conidiophore
Sexual reproduction involves• 2 different mating types, “+” or “-”.
• When hyphae of opposite mating types meet, they start the process of sexual reproduction by fusing, bringing plus and minus nuclei together in the same cell.
• After a period of growth, these nuclei form a diploid zygote.
• The zygote enters meiosis and produces haploid spores.
• These spores are capable of growing into new organisms.
Fungi are classified by their reproductive structures
• We will study four phylum. All end in “mycota”.
Zygomycota (common mold)Basidiomycota (mushroom)Ascomycota (sac fungi)Deuteromycota (imperfect fungi)

• Homework Page 529:– Question 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5
Phylum Zygomycota (called Zygomycetes)
• common mold• Grows on cheese,
bread, meat, fruit• Have life cycles that
include a zygospore (resting spore that contains zygotes formed during the sexual phase of the mold’s life cycle.)
• Generally lack cross walls in their hyphae, except for their reproductive hyphae.
• Diagram of the life cycle of zygomycetes (both asexual and sexual).

Life Cycle
Phylum Ascomycota (page 532)
• Named for the ascus, a reproductive structure that contains spores.
• Over 30 000 species (largest Phylum of Kingdom Fungi)
• Includes yeast
• Vocabulary:– Conidia (singular conidium) spores– Conidiophores (hyphae on which the conidia grow
at the very tip)– Ascus (plural asci) Forms within the fruiting body
Within the ascus, two nuclei of different mating types fuse to form a diploid zygote (2N).
Phylum Ascomycota (page 532)
Phylum Basidiomycota (page 534)
• Include mushrooms, shelf fungi, puffballs, earthstars, and plant rust.
• Often called club fungi because many of their fruiting bodies look like clubs.

Phylum Basidiomycota
• The structure that bears the spores is called a basidium (plural basidia).
• Basidia are found on the gills.
Life cycle of a Basidiomycete
Phylum Deuteromycota (page 536)
• Scientists don’t know how these fungi reproduce as they have never been able to observe their life cycles.
• Also called “imperfect fungi” because our understanding of their life cycles is imperfect.
• Includes Penicilloum notatum.
