In this article we will discuss about the reproduction in yeast. This will also help to draw the structure and diagram of reproduction in endomycetales. Asexual Reproduction: Yeasts reproduce asexually either by fission or by budding. Depending on this character they are grouped as fission yeasts, Schizosaccharomyces and budding yeasts, Zygosaccharomyces. During reproduction of fission yeasts the parent cell elongates [...]
The following points highlight the two families under which sphaeriales has been classified. The families are:- 1. Sordariaceae 2. Xylariaceae. Family # 1. Sordariaceae: The Sordariageae are saprophytes, mostly occurring on dung or on decaying plant parts. The distinguishing feature of this family is the somewhat beaked, superficial, separate perithecia. The perithecia are dark-brown or black with membranous or carbonous [...]
In this article we will discuss about the development and dehiscence of ascus and ascospores. Development of Ascus and Ascospores: The process leading to the development of ascus and ascospores is extremely variable in the Ascomycetes. It is very simple in the genera Dipodascus, Eremascus, Schizosaccharomyces, and Saccharomyces, where the zygotic cell directly develops into an ascus. Whereas, in Taphrino [...]
