Major Features of FungiCell wall composed of chitin
Fungi
Hyphae form a netlike mass called a mycelium.
Hyphae provide a larger surface area for nutrient absorption.

Major Features of Fungi
Hyphae are divided into cells by cross-walls called septa.

Nutrition in FungiSaprophytic fungi are decomposers that
recycle nutrients from dead organisms.
Fungi
Parasitic fungi absorb nutrients from the living cells of another organism.
Mutualistic fungi live in a mutualistic relationship with another organism.

Reproduction in Fungi
Fungi
Asexual reproduction in fungi includes budding, fragmentation, and spore reproduction.
Sexually reproducing fungi produce spores.

Budding
Fungi
The new cell develops while attached to the parent cell.
The plasma membrane pinches off to separate the new cell and the parent cell.

Fragmentation
Fungi
If the fragments of mycelia land in a location suitable for growing, then the hyphae will grow into a new mycelia.

Spore ProductionThe asexual and sexual life cycle of most
fungi includes spore production.
Fungi
A spore develops into a new organism without the fusion of gametes.

Fungi and PhotosynthesizersLichens and mycorrhizae are two examples
of mutualistic relationships between fungi and other organisms.
20.3 Ecology of FungiFungi
Mutualism is a type of symbiosis where both organisms benefit from the relationship.

LichensProvide a symbiotic relationship between
a fungus and an alga or a photosynthetic partner.
Fungi
A green algae or cyanobacterium provides food for both organisms.
The fungus provides a web of hyphae in which the algae or cyanobacterium can grow.
20.3 Ecology of FungiChapter 20

Mycorrhizae
Fungi
A mutualistic relationship between a fungus and plant root
absorbs and concentrates various minerals for the plant.
hyphae increase the plant’s root surface area for absorption.
receives carbohydrates and amino acids from the plant.

Lichens as Bioindicators
Fungi
They are sensitive to airborne pollutants.When air pollution rises, lichens will often die.

Fungi
Over 25,000 species of lichensOnly need light, air, and minerals to growFound in the harshest environments

Diversity of Lichens
Fungi
To survive drought, they can dry out, stop photosynthesis, and become brittle.
Often they are the pioneer species in an area.They help trap soil and fix nitrogen, which
helps in the colonization of plants.

Medical Uses of Fungi
Fungi
Penicillium notatum used as a source of penicillin
Claviceps purpurea used to reduce high blood pressure to control excessive bleeding to treat migraine headaches to promote contractions during birth
Tolypocladium inflatum the source for cyclosporine Cyclosporine is an immune suppressant drug.

Fungi and Food
Fungi
Mushrooms we eat are fungi.Yeast makes bread rise.Truffles are fungi.The flavors of some cheese are the result
of fungi.

Fungi and Bioremediation
Fungi
Fungi are mixed with water or soil where they decompose organic materials in pollutants.
The pollutants are broken down into harmless substances.

Harmful Fungi
Fungi
Fungi can parasitize humans and other animals.
