Yes, the sexual stage of some imperfect fungi has been observed. For most, however, the sexual stage is still unknown. As well, it is believed that some of them no longer undergo sexual reproduction.

Yes, the sexual stage has been observed in imperfect fungi, which are also known as Deuteromycetes or fungi lacking a known sexual stage. Although they were originally thought to reproduce solely through asexual means, it has been discovered that some species of imperfect fungi can undergo sexual reproduction under certain conditions. However, the sexual stage in these fungi is rare and not well understood compared to fungi with known sexual cycles.
