Solution

The correct option is D Agaricus
  • Basidiospore is a reproductive spore produced by Basidiomycete fungi, a group that includes mushrooms, shelf fungi(Agaricus), rusts, and smuts.
  • Basidiospores typically each contain one haploid nucleus that is the product of meiosis, and they are produced by specialized fungal cells called basidia. Hence, Basidiospores are produced by Agaricus
  • So, the correct answer is "Agaricus'.
