Classification of fungi
C. Several ways to classify fungi: a. Based on nutrition b. Based on morphology of reproductive
structures

Classification of fungi a. Modes of nutrition (DeBary 1831-1888) 1. Saprophytes-nutrition derived from dead
organic material (ex. Agaricus) 2. Parasites-nutrition derived absolutely from
living host (ex. athletes foot)3. Facultative saprophytes-can exist for a time as a saprophyte (ex. smuts)4. Facultative parasites-primarily saprophytic but may attack living organisms (ex. Aspergillus)

Classification of fungi
Basidiomycota- form their spores on
basidia (club shaped)
![Page 9: Fungi Classification 09](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061118/5469d9e7b4af9fc12c8b4937/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Classification of fungi
Ascomycota- form their spores in asci (sac-like)
![Page 10: Fungi Classification 09](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061118/5469d9e7b4af9fc12c8b4937/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Classification of fungi
Zygomycota- form their spores at the
junction of two gametangia
![Page 11: Fungi Classification 09](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061118/5469d9e7b4af9fc12c8b4937/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Classification of fungi
Chytridiomycota- form motile cells at some stage in their life
history

Molds vs. Yeasts (Habitat)Molds – found in most environments
particularly the soil where they cause decay of plants and animals; soil and water (parasites of plants and animals (multicellular)
Yeasts – water, soil, dust, fruits and vegetables (one-celled or unicellular)
![Page 13: Fungi Classification 09](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061118/5469d9e7b4af9fc12c8b4937/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
![Page 14: Fungi Classification 09](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061118/5469d9e7b4af9fc12c8b4937/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Mold – cottony or velvety growths (mass of mycelium)
- mature, spore bearing heads are generally colored
- unripe spores and mycelium are white or colorless
- grow very slowly thus not used in routine biochemical testing
Yeast – colonies are usually soft, opaque, 1 – 3 mm in size, and cream-colored
Molds vs. Yeasts (Cultural Characteristics)

Molds vs. Yeasts (Structure/Function)Mold- with hyphae (nonseptate or septate)
Yeast – with thick rigid wall surrounds the protoplasm of the mature cellGenerally larger than bacteria (1 to 5 um in
width and 5 to 30 um in length); spherical to ellipsoidal
Contains inclusions like granules of glycogen and volutin (stain reddish brown with iodine and pink on volutin in solution of neutral red)
With distinct, usually eccentric nucleus seen by special staining

Molds v s. Fungi (Mode of Nutrition)Molds – saprophytic (live on dead or decaying
organic matter (outside its body) by decomposing wastes and dead bodies of plants and animals in soil and water, then absorb and utilize the digested products for foodChemo organotrophic: obtain nutrition from non-
living organisms
Yeasts - Mainly saprophytic, decomposing a variety of dead organic material
![Page 18: Fungi Classification 09](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061118/5469d9e7b4af9fc12c8b4937/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Mold vs. Yeast (Conditions Affecting growth)Molds 1) abundant moisture
2) supply of organic matter and oxygen3) warm humid environment (accelerate growth)4) environment containing large amounts of sugar (high osmotic pressure) like surface of jellies and jams
Yeasts - mostly aerobic (oxidize glucose completely to CO2 and H2O through the citric ac cycle); some facultative aerobe converts glucose through fermentation (using yeast enzyme) into alcohol and carbon dioxide
![Page 19: Fungi Classification 09](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061118/5469d9e7b4af9fc12c8b4937/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Mold vs. Yeast (Reproduction)Molds - by germination of asexual or sexual
spores or both
Yeasts - some produce true filamentous growth by fission but mostly form buds (usually asexual through budding)
![Page 20: Fungi Classification 09](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061118/5469d9e7b4af9fc12c8b4937/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Molds vs. Yeasts (significance)Molds
1) highly destructive causing deterioration of products like wood, leather, paper, fabrics and glass lenses2) Cause diseases in cultivated plants and humans3) enzymes of certain molds act on the curd, during the ripening process of Camembert, roquefort and blue cheese4) commercial and medical uses (production of alcohol, adhesive, citrates and gluconates, and ergots)5) Gallic acid – important in dye and ink industries

Molds vs. Yeasts (significance)Yeasts
1) used in the manufacture of food 2) industrial fermentation (wine, whiskey, rum and brandy, beer, glycerin)3) lactose fermentation (fermented milk drinks)4) cause diseases such as meningitis, thrush

Kind of Asexual SporesArthrospore – spore formed by
fragmentation of the tip of the hyphaeBlastospore – produced as an outgrowth
along a septate hypha.Conidiospores – unprotected spores
formed by mitosis at the tips of the hyphaeSporangiospores – spores produced within
a sac called sporangium
![Page 25: Fungi Classification 09](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061118/5469d9e7b4af9fc12c8b4937/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
PhycomycetesMost primitive: algae-like fungiHabitat: Water, soil and all sorts of decaying matterStructural Characteristics: Mass of interangled filaments
and grow as fluffy colonies (coenocytic or nonseptate mycelium)
Reproduction: Asexual and sexual1) Asexual – production of sporangiospores (both motile and non-motile); by external conidiospores (conidia)2) Sexual – formation of thick walled zygospore or oospore
Examples: Saprolegnia (water mold): infects goldfishRhizopus (bread mold); appear as white or gray fuzzy
growth on bread or other starchy foodsMucor: cottony in soil, rotting manure, fruits and other
organic matter

AscomycetesWith unicellular form like yeastsHabitat: freshwater, swampsStructural Characteristics: septated myceliumReproduction: Asexual and sexual
a) Asexual: budding (yeasts), cell division, segmentation or production of conidiosporesb) Sexual: production of ascospores
Example: Penicillium – mold that give characteristic green
