Ascomycetes are called sac fungi due to the presence of sac-like ascus, where ascospores (sexual spores) are produced. Also Check: What type... View Article
Ascus and basidium are the reproductive structures, in which sexual spores are produced in ascomycetes and basidiomycetes, respectively. Also... View Article
Secondary mycelium is a dikaryotic mycelium produced in basidiomycetes after plasmogamy. It contains two haploid nuclei of two different strains... View Article
In the gametangial contact, male and female gametangia come in close contact and the male gamete nuclei migrate to female gametangium. Gametangia... View Article

Dikaryon contains two haploid genomes. It is different from a diploid cell as the two haploid genomes are present in different nuclei. Also... View Article
Basidium is a spore-bearing structure formed by plasmogamy in basidiomycetes. Karyogamy and meiosis occur in the basidium. Also Check: What... View Article
