DOLP- Fungi General Structure and Function: For many years‚ fungi were classified into the plantae kingdom because the two kingdoms seemed to be alike; but now‚ we know that they are all too different. In fact‚ the fungi kingdom is more closely related to the animalia kingdom. Some of the only notable similarities between the fungi and plantae kingdoms are that they are both made of eukaryotic cells‚ both immobile‚ both contain cell walls (although made of different material)‚ and both evolved

Sordaria is an Ascomycota that uses a special spore formation process in reproduction. Ascomycota’s use both meiosis and mitosis division to produce eight spores (asci). These asci are held in a sac called a perithecium or ascus‚ a fruiting body that rupture and release

scene of the so called “Zombie Fungi‚” being really fascinated by it. The cordyceps belong in the kingdom of fungi‚ different from plants and animals. Although some people claim the Cordyceps is both plant and animal. Belonging to the Phylum “Ascomycota” or the sac fungi‚ and the Genus is named Cordyceps. I would focus on a single species‚ however‚ there are over 400 different species of Cordyceps found in Asia‚ Australia‚ China‚ Europe‚ North America‚ Russia. The one I’m going to be focusing

Fungi is one of the five kingdoms of the living world that contains a diversity of organisms‚ there is an estimation of about 1.5 million species of fungi worldwide out of which‚ approximately 120000 species and majority tends to be living in an environment which is either aquatic or terrestrial ascomycetes and basidiomycetes species (Kirk‚ 2008). Have been described till date‚ however the numbers are dynamic in steadily escalating (Hawksworth‚ 1991) Cercospora zeae-maydisis fungus that is responsible

Introduction To differentiate between bacteria‚ fungi and yeast‚ we plant four different microbes in plates under the same environment for one week and compare the growth of the four microbes by macroscopic and microscopic observation. Meanwhile‚ the diversity of bacteria and fungi in humans‚ the environment and wood could be observed. In addition‚ the four substrates are cultured in two media‚ MEA and NA‚ under the same condition. Thus‚ how nutrients affect the growth of bacteria and fungi could

A Survey of Eukaryotic Cells and Microorganisms HISTORY OF EUKARYOTES: 1. Evidence indicates that the first Eukaryotic cells first appeared on the earth approximately 2 billion years ago. Fossilized cells appear in shale sediments from China‚ Russia and Australia the date from 850-950 million years ago. 2. Biologists have discovered evidence to suggest that the eukaryotic cell evolved from prokaryotic organisms by a process of intracellular symbiosis. 3. Some of the organelles that

Definition * Mycorrhiza is a specialized fungus in the soil which forms close associations with the roots of a vascular plants * In other temperate and boreal successional systems arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are the primary mycorrhizal associate in early succession‚ whereas in older soils the main associates are ectomycorrhizal fungi (Piotrowski‚ 2008). Arbuscualar Mycorrhizae: Arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) is the predominant and ancestral type of mycorrhiza in land plants. It’s root
