3/6/2021 Chapter 12 The Eukaryotes: Fungi Algae Protozoa Helminths Arthropods Overview of Eukaryotic Reproduction DNA packaged as chromosomes in the nucleus Have variety of methods of asexual reproduction Many reproduce sexually by forming gametes and zygotes Algae, fungi, and some protozoa reproduce both sexually and asexually Consists of nuclear and cytoplasmic division Nuclear division has one or two complete copies of genome Single copy (haploid) ‐ Most fungi, many algae, some protozoa Two copies (diploid) ‐ Remaining fungi, algae, and protozoa – Types Mitosis Meiosis 1 3/6/2021 Cytokinesis – cytoplasmic division Figure 12.2 Different types of cytoplasmic division- overview 2 3/6/2021 Schizogony Produce multinucleate schizont After cytokinesis = many daughter cells Figure 12.3 Schizogony Fungi – Mycology Chemoheterotrophic (saprophytic) – Obtain food through absorption Cell wall contains chitin Lack chlorophyll Aerobic or facultative anaerobic Multicellular (molds), unicellular (yeasts) Sexual and asexual spores – Classified based on their form of sexual reproduction Cellular arrangement – unicellular, filamentous, fleshy 3 3/6/2021 Significance of Fungi Decompose dead organisms and recycle their nutrients Help plants absorb water and minerals Used for food and in manufacture of foods and beverages Produce antibiotics Serve as important research tools 30% cause diseases of plants, animals, and humans Can spoil fruit, pickles, jams, and jellies Fungal Morphology Thallus – the body of the mold or fleshy fungus – vegetative Consists of long filaments – hyphae (joined) together Mycelium. Septate Hyphae Coenocytic hyphae (aseptate) 4 3/6/2021 Fungal Morphology Pearson Education, 2010 Figure 12.2 Yeasts Unicellular fungi Fission yeasts – divide symmetrically – binary fission Budding yeasts – divide asymmetrically – budding Pseudohyphae – short chains formed when the buds do not completely separate Filamentous fungi produce lightweight spores that disperse over large distances 5 3/6/2021 Asexual Spores Asexual Spores 6 3/6/2021 Sexual Reproduction Three phases: – Plasmogamy: Haploid donor cell nucleus (+) penetrates cytoplasm of recipient cell (–) – Karyogamy: + and – nuclei fuse – Meiosis: Diploid nucleus produces haploid nuclei (sexual spores) 7 3/6/2021 Sexual Spores Zygospore: Fusion of haploid cells produces one zygospore Pearson, 2010 Figure 12.6 Sexual Spores Ascospore: Formed in a sac (ascus) Pearson, 2010 Figure 12.7 8 3/6/2021 Sexual Spores Basidiospore: Formed externally on a pedestal (basidium) Pearson, 2010 Figure 12.6 Fungal Divisions Zygomycota Ascomycota Basidiomycota Deuteromycetes 9 3/6/2021 Fungal Division: Zygomycota Conjugation fungi Sexual reproduction by zygospores Asexual reproduction by sporangiospores in a sporangium Coenocytic hyphae (no septa) Example – Rhizopus Rhizopus 10 3/6/2021 Fungal Division: Ascomycota Sac fungi Septate hyphae Sexual reproduction by ascospores in ascus sac Asexual reproduction by conidiospores on conidia Fungal Division: Basidiomycota Figure 12.23 Basidiocarps (fruiting bodies) of the bird's nest fungus, Club fungi Crucibulum Septate hyphae Sexual reproduction by basidiospores on basidium pedestal Asexual reproduction by fragmentation Important genera – Coprinus – Amanita 11 3/6/2021 Economic Effects of Fungi Saccharomyces cerevisiae: Bread, wine, HBV vaccine Trichoderma: Cellulase Taxomyces: Taxol Entomophaga: Biocontrol Paecilomyces: Kills termites Fungal Diseases (Mycoses) Systemic mycoses: Deep within body Subcutaneous mycoses: Beneath the skin – Occur by direct implantation of fungal spores or mycelium into a puncture of the skin Cutaneous mycoses: Affect hair, skin, and nails – Triggers immune response – Permanent damage to tissue Superficial mycoses: Localized, e.g., hair shafts – Does not penetrate living tissue – No immune response triggered Opportunistic mycoses: Caused by normal microbiota or environmental fungi 12 3/6/2021 Superficial mycoses Piedra ‐ Black Piedra Malassezia furfur – Pityriasis Ascomycota Basidiomycota Hyphae/spores on hair shaft Fungus interferes with Central & S.
