What is a Fungus ?
Characteristics (distinguishing features)
1) All Eukaryotic organisms (a true nucleus)
2) Heterotrophic (Saprobic, symbiotic, parasitic)
3) Do not have chlorophyll (Achlorophyllous)
4) The cell is surrounded by rigid cell wall made of chitin & complex carbohydates (Mannan, glucan)
5) Cell membrane : (sterol, ergosterol)

MORPHOLGY
1. Yeasts : are unicellular organisms
2. Filamentous fungi (Hyphae, mycelium) Hyhpae are multicellular filamentous structures, constituted by tubular cells with cell walls.
3. Dimorphic• Yeast : Parasitic form, Tissue form, Cultured at 37° C• Filamentous : Saprophytic form, Cultured at 25 C
Dimorphic: Have two forms depending on change in the environmental factors Mold form Yeast form

MORPHOLGY
In Clinical samples Budding yeast cells+/- Pseudohyphae
Colony morphology (Culture)
Have same appearance How do we differentiate between them?
Budding yeast cell
Yeast:
Examples : Candida albicans, Saccharomyces cerevisiae

MORPHOLGY
Filamentous fungi (Mould=Mold)A hypha (plural hyphae) is a long, branching filamentous cell. hyphae are the main mode of vegetative growth.
Mycelium: The intertwined mass of hyphae that forms the fungal colony.
Conidia/ Spore (singular = conidium): asexual spores borne externally on hyphae or on a conidiophore.
Examples: Aspergillus, Penicillium, Rhizopus

Fungal Hypha Filamentous fungi Septa:
Cross-walls (septa) that divide hyphae into segments. (septate hypha)
If there are no cross-walls, the hyphae are considered to be non-septate.

MORPHOLGY
Filamentous fungi (mold)
Moniliaceous moldshyaline or lightly pigmented conidia or hyphae, colorless
Dematiaceous MoldsAre pigmented. Because of the pigment, the colonies appear dark, brown, or black

I) Asexual: Only mitotic cell division
1) Somatic Yeasts by budding Molds by hyphal fragmentation
2) Spore formation:a) Sporangiospores in sporangiab) Chlamydospores in or on hyphae c) Conidia (conidium) on hypha or on conidiophores
II) Sexual: Fusion, mitosis, meiosis

SPORES
Spores?
-These are the small airborne particles by which fungi reproduce.
-They are produced by mitosis and readily disseminate in the air.

PATHOGENICITY OF FUNGI
However, fungi can cause diseases to humansCause superficial infections,
some can cause allergic reactions
Few cause invasive infections
To cause the disease: 1. Thermotolerance2. Ability to survive in tissue environment3. Ability to withstand host defenses
