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.
