Why are the imperfect fungi imperfect?

Imperfect fungi are considered imperfect because they do not exhibit in any of its life cycle both means of reproduction - sexual and asexual reproduction. Their most common means of reproduction is by asexual reproduction.AnswerThey were called imperfect because no one understood their life styles "perfectly". Also there is current debate over how to classify these fungi. The imperfect fungi were once grouped in the phylum Deuteromycota, however this phylum has been removed and there is currently no place for these asexual fungi in the current fungal classification system. It is because there has never been a sexual reproductive stage observed from them. B.


What are some examples of imperfect Fungi?

Some examples of imperfect fungi include trichophyton, candida, and aspergillus. These fungi do not have a known sexual reproductive stage and are classified based on their asexual reproductive structures.


What are fungi that do not fit into other standard groups of fungi called?

The first group of fungi is called Division Zygomycota. The second group is Division Ascomycota, or sac fungi, and the third group is Division Basidiomycota. The fungi that do not fit in to any of these groups are put in to the "junk drawer" of fungi. This group is called Division Deuteromycota, or "imperfect fungi". All fungi are classified based on the structure in which their spores are produced, but in this "imperfect" group, scientists have never observed their spores being produced. Because of this, they cannot classify them in to any other group.


Differentiate between the imperfect fungi and all other fungi?

Imperfect fungi are fungi that do not have a known sexual reproductive stage, also known as Deuteromycetes. All other fungi can reproduce sexually and have both sexual and asexual reproductive stages.

What is a characteristic or member of the fungal phylum deuteromycota?

Deuteromycetes are the fungi belonging to the phylum Deuteromycota. The fungi belonging to this phylum are called Imperfect Fungi because they don't show any mode of sexual reproduction. Also, any method of asexual reproduction is either unknown or absent, i.e., they are not known to produce asexual spores called conidia(Which are not produced inside the fungal part sporangium) for reproduction.Some members of this phylum are - Sclerotium, Aspergillus, Penicillium, and Alternaria.You can learn more about Deuteromycota from the attached link.A characteristic of the fungal phylum Deuteromcota is that they reproduce only asexually.
