3. 
 The term “mycology” is derived from
Greek word “mykes” meaning mushroom.
 Therefore mycology is the study of
fungi,including there genetic and biological
properties,their taxonomy, uses as well as
dangers.
What is Mycology?

4. 
 Eukaryotic
 Heterotrophs
 No chlorophyll –non photosynthetic
 Cell walls made of chitin(kite-in) instead of cellulose
like that of a plant
 Most multicellular(hyphae)-some unicellular(yeast)
 They lived as Parasite or symbiotic
 Non-motile
General characteristics of Fungi

5. 
1. Chytridiomycota(chytrids)
2. Zygomycota(conjugated fungi)
3. Ascomycota(sac fungi)
4. Basidiomycota(club fungi)
5. Phylum Glomeromycota(recently described)
Classification of Fungi

6. 
 Most chytrids are unicellular, a few from
Multicellular organism and hypae.
 Usually live in aquatic environments,
although some species live on land.
 Generally they have chitin in their cell walls.
Example : Chytrid
Chytridiomycota

7. 
 Multicellular
 Most are terrestrial
 Cell walls made of chitin
Example : Rhizopus stolonifer
Zygomycota

8. 
 Most are multicellular but some are unicellular.
 Cell wall contain large amount of chitin and less
cellulos.
Example : Neurospora,Saccharomyces
Ascomycota(sac fungi)

9. 
 Multicellular
 Most are terrestrial
 Saprophytic,parasite or mutiealestic
 Rarely produce asextually
Example : Agaricus,puccinia
Basidiomycota(club fungi)

10. 
 Arbuscular Endomycorrhizae.
 200 species so far.
 Occur in about 80% of vascular plants.
 Aseptate, Coenoeytic
 Asexual
Example : Glomus
Phylum Glomeromycota

11. 
Lifecycle and reproduction of
Agaricus

12. 
 Beneficial role –
 Important agents for bio-degradation and bio-deterioration
 Use in Industrial fermatation Process
Example : Penicillium notatum ,Saccharomyces cerevisiae
 Harmful role –
 Destruction of food,lumber,paper and cloth.
 Animal and human diseases,including allergies,ringworm
 Toxins produced by poisonles mushrooms and within food.
 Plant diseases(Late Blight Diseas of Potato)
Importance of Fungi
