Solution
Dikaryotic:
Organisms that contain two genetically distinct cell nuclei in the same cell are called dikaryotic.
These organisms consist of genetically dissimilar but have two cell nuclei in the same cell.
These are unique to fungi, especially Ascomycetes, and basidiomycetes.
These are cells that have two nuclei, one from each parent cell, and share a single cytoplasm without achieving nuclear fusion for a length of time.
