ascus

(means sac) saclike, spore-producing structure of sac fungi

asexual reproduction in zygote fungi:

-haploid spores are produced in sporangia -haploid spores are produced by mitosis and are carried by the wind to new locations where they grow into new fungi

sexual reproduction in sac fungi (similar to zygote fungi):

-hyphae from two mating types fuse -haploid nuclei pair up -cells and nuclei inside cells divide -when the cells and the nuclei divide, the hyphae that form have two nuclei per cell -the dikaryotic cells form a reproductive structure called an ascocarp -certain cells within the ascocarp become asci (ascus) -the nuclei fuse, undergo meiosis, and produce 8 spores per ascus (use both mitosis and meiosis in this process)

sexual reproduction in club fungi (similar to sac fungi)

-hyphae from two mating types fuse and produce a dikaryotic reproductive structure called a basidiocarp -on the underside of the basidiocarp, club-shaped cells called basidia form -inside the basidia, nuclei fuse, undergo meiosis, and produce spores

chytrids were once classified as fungi because:

-unicellular -produce spores and gametes that have flagella

how many spores are produced per ascus?

8
