A form of sexual reproduction. The gametes of fumgi are not termed male and female but rather, + and -. They bring + and - nuclei into the same cell. Sfter a period of development, these nuclei form a diploid zygote.

What is the result of plasmogamy?

Plasmogamy is the fusion of two or more cells or protoplasts without fusion of the nuclei, as occurs in higher terrestrial fungi.


Describe the processes of plasmogamy and karyogamy in fungi?

Plasmogamy is the fusion of cytoplasm from two haploid fungal cells, resulting in the formation of a dikaryotic cell with two separate haploid nuclei. Karyogamy is the fusion of the two haploid nuclei within the dikaryotic cell, leading to the formation of a diploid nucleus, which eventually undergoes meiosis to produce haploid spores.


What is Plasmogamy?

Fusion of cytoplasm in fungal reproduction is called plasmogamy .


In most fungi is fertilization complete after the cells fuse together?

No, in most fungi, fertilization is not complete after the cells fuse together. Fusion of the cells (plasmogamy) is followed by the fusion of their nuclei (karyogamy) to form a diploid zygote, which then undergoes meiosis to produce haploid spores. This process completes the sexual cycle in most fungi.


What is the dikaryotic stage of a fungus life cycle?

The dikaryotic stage in a fungus life cycle is characterized by cells containing two genetically distinct nuclei that are not yet fused. This stage follows the fusion of haploid nuclei from two mating strains but precedes the formation of diploid nuclei through nuclear fusion. Dikaryotic cells are essential for the development of fruiting bodies and sexual reproduction in fungi.


Is nuclei and nuclear fusion the same?

No. Nuclei are objects, nuclear fusion is a process in which those objects join to make bigger nuclei.


What structure contains two haploid nuclei?

Ascus is the structure that contains two haploid nuclei in fungi, particularly in the Ascomycota division. These nuclei are produced by the fusion of two haploid nuclei during sexual reproduction and can undergo meiosis to produce spores.


Is Fusion a process in which existing nuclei combine to make new nuclei?

Yes. In nuclear fusion, experiments are trying to produce fusion of nuclei of deuterium and tritium, which are isotopes of hydrogen. The product will be nuclei of helium plus released energy.


What is combining of nuclei?

fusion


Do fungi have a nuclei?

yes. since all fungi are prokaryotic, they all have a nucleus.


Zygote fungi produce reproductive cells in cases called?

Zygote fungi produce reproductive cells in structures called zygospores. Zygospores are thick-walled structures containing the zygote formed by the fusion of two haploid nuclei. They serve as a means of survival and dispersal for the zygote fungi.
