Study Notes

Taxonomy Classification of Fungi

  • Fungi are classified using a hierarchical taxonomy: Domain > Supergroup > Kingdom > Phylum > Class > Order > Family > Genus > Species.

Rhizopus (Sporangia)

  • Belongs to the Domain Eukarya, Supergroup Unikonta, Clade Opisthokonts.
  • Characterized by the presence of sporangia, which are structures that produce spores.

Rhizopus (Zygosporangia)

  • Also categorized under Domain Eukarya, Supergroup Unikonta, Clade Opisthokonts.
  • Notable for zygosporangia, a thick-walled structure formed during sexual reproduction that contains zygotes.

Peziza (Ascomycota)

  • Falls under Domain Eukarya, Supergroup Unikonta, Clade Opisthokonts, and Subclade Ascomycota.
  • Recognized for its cup-shaped fruiting body, typically housing ascospores.

Coprinus

  • Classified within Domain Eukarya, Supergroup Unikonta, Clade Opisthokonts.
  • Known for its unique gilled structure, often referred to as "shaggy ink cap."

Lichen

  • Located in Domain Eukarya, Supergroup Unikonta, Clade Amoebozoa.
  • Represents a symbiotic association between fungi and photosynthetic organisms, such as algae or cyanobacteria, resulting in unique ecological adaptations.
