In basidiomycetes the primary mycelia of different mating types fuse to form what?
In basidiomycetes, the primary mycelia of different mating types fuse to form a secondary mycelium (dikaryotic mycelium) containing two different nuclei in each cell. This secondary mycelium is involved in the formation of specialized structures like mushrooms, which produce spores for reproduction.
What happens when mycelia of two different mating strains meet?
When mycelia of two different mating strains meet, they undergo a process called plasmogamy where cytoplasmic contents are exchanged, but nuclei remain separate. This fusion forms a dikaryotic mycelium with two genetically distinct nuclei in each cell. Subsequent phases of mating result in karyogamy, where nuclei fuse to form a diploid nucleus, initiating sexual reproduction in fungi.
How does fungi grow?
Fungi grow through a process called spore germination. When conditions are favorable, spores germinate into small thread-like structures called hyphae. These hyphae then branch out and form a network called mycelium, which absorbs nutrients from the environment to support the growth of the fungus.
What are the Threadlike tube composing the body of fungi?
The threadlike tubes composing the body of fungi are called hyphae. Hyphae are tubular structures that make up the mycelium of fungi and are responsible for nutrient absorption and growth. They can be septate (with crosswalls) or aseptate (without crosswalls).
Do mushrooms grow singly?
Not really, not in the sense of say a potted plant growing singly. Mushrooms emerge from the mass of mycelia under the soil as a fruiting body and so may form one at a time or in masses of fruiting bodies, depending upon growing conditions as well as the mushroom species.
What masses of the filaments known as a hyphae called?
Mycelium or mycelia.
A group of intertwined hyphae are called?
Mycelia
What are fungal mycelia without cross-walls?
phycomycetes
What are masses the filaments known as hyphae called?
mycelia
What masses of the filament known as hyphae called?
mycelia
How many cells does mushrooms have?
Mushrooms are the fruiting bodies of larger hidden structures called mycelia. Mycelia are made up of millions of cells it would be impossible to count them all.
What is the result of joining two genetically different mycelia in sac fungi?
dikaryotic
Are there decomposer in the Taiga?
Absolutely. Soil bacteria, moss, insects, honey mushrooms and mycelia.
What is a water molds?
They are microscopic, absorptive organisms that reproduce both sexually and asexually and are composed of mycelia, or a tube-like vegetative body (all of an organism's mycelia are called its thallus). The name "water mould" refers to the fact that they thrive under conditions of high humidity and running surface water

Asexual reproduction called fragmention pieces of hyphae from of the mycelium are capable of growing into new mycelia?
Fragmentation is a form of asexual reproduction in fungi where pieces of hyphae from the mycelium can grow into new mycelia. This process allows fungi to rapidly reproduce and spread in their environment without the need for sexual reproduction.
