MYCOLOGY - • STUDY OF MOLDS (FILAMENTOUS ORGANISMS) AND YEASTS (SINGLE CELLS WHICH PRODUCE PROGENY BY BUDDING, USUALLY) • EUKARYOTES, PRIMITIVE PLANTS, 5-10 μM DIAMETER • 30 MEGA BASE PAIR GENOMES; SEVERAL CHROMOSOMES; 5,000 GENES • CELL WALL WITH CHITIN (N-ACETYL GLUCOSEAMINE POLYSACCHARIDE), • ABSORPTIVE NUTRITION, • LACK CHLOROPHYLL, NO PHOTOSYNTHESIS • FORM SPORES, NON-MOTILE, • TOLERATE DRYNESS, HIGH OSMOTIC PRESSURE, • ACID AND ALKALINE ENVIRONMENTS • SAPROPHYTES - DECAY DEAD CREATURES (& PERMIT • RECYLCING) - RELEASE HYDROLYTIC ENZYMES WHICH DIGEST EXTERNAL FOOD
MOLDS - • LONG, BRANCHED FILAMENTS - HYPHAE • COENOCYTIC - NO PERPENDICULAR CROSS WALLS • SEPTATE - WITH CROSS WALLS WITH PORES • GROW BY EXTENSION, BRANCHING • MYCELIUM - MASS OF HYPHAE - COLONY • SPORES - DORMANT, CAN GERMINATE • YEASTS - • UNICELLULAR, SINGLE NUCLEUS, BUD PROGENY • (USUALLY) • DIMORPHIC FUNGI - SOME WHICH CAUSE DISEASE - • YEAST FORM IN THE ANIMAL, FILAMENTOUS FORM ON • CULTURE MEDIA
REPRODUCTION • ASEXUAL - MITOSIS FOLLOWED BY: • TRANSVERSE CELL WALL FORMATION FORMING TWO EQUAL DAUGHTER CELLS BINARY FISSION • BUDDING FORMING MOTHER CELL AND NEW BUD • TRANSVERSE CELL WALL FORMATION FORMING SPORES WITHIN • A HYPHA OR AT THE END • SEXUAL – • HOMOTHALLIC - SELF-FERTILIZING, COMPATIBLE GAMETES ON • THE SAME MYCELIUM • HETEROTHALLIC - CROSSING BETWEEN DIFFERENT BUT • COMPATIBLE MYCELIA. HAPLOID GAMETES FUSE; DIPLOID • GAMETES; MEIOSIS, HAPLOID SPORES
ZYGOMYCETES • COENOCYTIC - HAPLOID NUCLEI, HYPHA • RHIZOIDS EXTEND DOWN INTO SUBSTRATE, ABSORB NUTRIENTS • STOLONS - ERECT HYPHAE, FORM SPORANGIA WITH BLACK • SPORANGIOSPORES • E.G., COMMON BLACK BREAD MOLD: RHIZOPUS NIGRICANS • ASCOMYCETES • SEPTATE HYPHAE, CONIDIOSPORES AT END OF CONIDIOPHORE • ASPERGILLUS FUMIGATUS - • UBIQUITOUS - HOMES, ALLERGIC REACTIONS, ASTHMA, SINUSITIS, • OPPORTUNISTIC PATHOGEN ESPECIALLY IN HIV+ PEOPLE • ASPERGILLUS FLAVUS - AFLATOXINS • PENICILLIUM NOTATUM - FIRST PENICILLIN • PENICILLIUM ROQUEFORTI – CHEESE SOFTENING/RIPENING • CLAVICEPS PURPUREA - ERGOT OF RYE – PLANT DISEASE • ERGOTISM IN PEOPLE - ERGOT TOXIN - CONTAINS LYSERGIC ACID- • USED TO SYNTHESIZE LYSERGIC ACID DIETHYLAMIDE -LSD • VASOCONSTRICTION - GANGRENE, AMPUTATIONS • NEUROTRANSMISSION - SEVERE BURNING SENSATION; • HALLUCINATIONS, CONVULSIONS, DEATH • COMMON – EUROPE – MIDDLE AGES
BASIDIOMYCETES • MUSHROOMS - DIPLOID HYPHAE GROWING IN SOIL • ASSEMBLE TO PUSH THROUGH SOIL; • FORM CAP UNDER WHICH BASIDIOSPORES DEVELOP • EDIBLE, BUT MUSHROOM POISONING
