The long "thread-like" tubular structures that is the basic
cellular unit of filamentous fungi
Ans: Hypha
A swelling on a germ tube or hypha (typically of plant
pathogenic fungi) that adheres to the surface of the host,
and facilitates subsequent penetration of the host
Ans: Appresorium
Flagellate, motile spores
Ans: Zoospores

This is the concept that 2 organisms that look alike must
be the same species
Ans: Morphologic Species
This is the concept that 2 organisms that share DNA
sequences must be the same species
Ans: Phylogenic Species
Short, backwardly directed branches on hyphae of
dikaryotic Basidiomycota. These provide a bypass for one
of the dikaryotic nuclei produced during conjugate
nuclear division. This structure assures maintenance of the
dikaryon in the hyphae
Ans: Clamp Connection
This is the fertile tissue specilizaed for production of the
sexual spores in the "higher fungi"
Ans: Hymenium
This hooked cell is the site where the dikaryon is produced
in the Ascomycota, and it is progenitor of the ascus

Ans: Crozier
Describes multi-nucleate hyphae lacking cross walls
Ans: Coenocytic
Collective term for hyphae. The vegetative thallus of a
fungus, excluding fruiting structures
Ans: Mycelium
Definition of a fungus
Ans: A EUKARYOTIC, HETEROTROPHIC organism; devoid of
chlorophyll; with chitin is cell walls; that obtains its nutrients
by ABSROPTION, and usually reproduces by making
spores.
This is a specialized organelle made by Ascomycota
whose function is to block septa during damage
Ans: Worin Body
