KINGDOM FUNGI
![Page 2: KINGDOM FUNGI - Mme Quesnel...in the Kingdom Fungi Lichens Composite organism depends on 2-way relationship Fungus + photosynthetic organism (e.g. cyanobacteria, unicellular green](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022043005/5f8d4fc9437ef20a2923980b/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Fungus…
What are they? How many are there?
Where do we find them? Why do they exist? What do they do? How are they important? How are they different?
Why? How do they reproduce?
Survive?

Phylogeny of Fungus
Which kingdom is more closely related to fungi?
Why do you think so?
![Page 4: KINGDOM FUNGI - Mme Quesnel...in the Kingdom Fungi Lichens Composite organism depends on 2-way relationship Fungus + photosynthetic organism (e.g. cyanobacteria, unicellular green](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022043005/5f8d4fc9437ef20a2923980b/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Kingdom Fungi
Eukaryote >100 000 species
identified Few unicellular, majority
multi-cellular Similar to plants, but no
chlorophyll Heterotrophic – absorb
external nutrients (osmotrophic)
Important for ecosystems as breakdown organic matter and recycle nutrients
![Page 5: KINGDOM FUNGI - Mme Quesnel...in the Kingdom Fungi Lichens Composite organism depends on 2-way relationship Fungus + photosynthetic organism (e.g. cyanobacteria, unicellular green](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022043005/5f8d4fc9437ef20a2923980b/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Structure of Fungi
Uni-Cellular (i.e. yeasts) - have individual ovoid / cylindrical cells
Multi-Cellular (majority) – structurally diverse, but general shape
![Page 6: KINGDOM FUNGI - Mme Quesnel...in the Kingdom Fungi Lichens Composite organism depends on 2-way relationship Fungus + photosynthetic organism (e.g. cyanobacteria, unicellular green](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022043005/5f8d4fc9437ef20a2923980b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Structure of Multi-Cellular Fungus
Body form diverse, but general shape
Above ground; edible; “fruiting body” of fungus
Underground network; body of fungus
![Page 7: KINGDOM FUNGI - Mme Quesnel...in the Kingdom Fungi Lichens Composite organism depends on 2-way relationship Fungus + photosynthetic organism (e.g. cyanobacteria, unicellular green](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022043005/5f8d4fc9437ef20a2923980b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Fungal Structure
Hyphae form the “fuzz” often associated with mould.
Also form reproductive structures of many fungi.
Hyphae grow at their tips, nuclei multiply by mitosis.
Mycelium forms body of fungus below ground.
![Page 8: KINGDOM FUNGI - Mme Quesnel...in the Kingdom Fungi Lichens Composite organism depends on 2-way relationship Fungus + photosynthetic organism (e.g. cyanobacteria, unicellular green](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022043005/5f8d4fc9437ef20a2923980b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Structure of Multi-Cellular Fungus
Hyphae: threadlike tubes that produce enzymes
for digestion.
Reproductive Structure: produces
tiny cells called spores.
The morphology strives to enhance their ability to absorb nutrients from their surroundings

Fungal Nutrition
Release digestive enzymes to break down food externally, then absorb nutrients
4 methods of nutrient uptake: Parasitic Predatory Mutualistic Saprobic

Parasitic Fungi
∼30% known parasitic (mostly on/ in plants) Some release toxic chemicals called
neurotoxins; result in poisoning or death Examples:
Ergots Tar spot fungus
Corn smut Cordyceps fungus growing through its host’s body
![Page 13: KINGDOM FUNGI - Mme Quesnel...in the Kingdom Fungi Lichens Composite organism depends on 2-way relationship Fungus + photosynthetic organism (e.g. cyanobacteria, unicellular green](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022043005/5f8d4fc9437ef20a2923980b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Mutualistic Fungi
>80% of all land plants have this relationship with fungi
Receive energy (carbohydrates) directly from a plant
Examples: mycorrhizal fungi (grows in and around plant roots) Plant provides carbohydrates (glucose)
Fungi provides minerals (P,K, N) & water from the soil.
Mycorrhizal fungi
![Page 14: KINGDOM FUNGI - Mme Quesnel...in the Kingdom Fungi Lichens Composite organism depends on 2-way relationship Fungus + photosynthetic organism (e.g. cyanobacteria, unicellular green](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022043005/5f8d4fc9437ef20a2923980b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Saprobic (Decomposers)
breakdown complex molecules into sugars or consume sugars found in environment
Examples:
common bread mold (eats carbs in bread)
shelf fungi on logs (eats carbs in cell wall of wood)
white button mushrooms in store (eats sugars and cellulose in dung)
![Page 15: KINGDOM FUNGI - Mme Quesnel...in the Kingdom Fungi Lichens Composite organism depends on 2-way relationship Fungus + photosynthetic organism (e.g. cyanobacteria, unicellular green](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022043005/5f8d4fc9437ef20a2923980b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Saprobic (Decomposers)
(a) Fly agaric, common species in conifer forests in the N. hemisphere
(b) Maiden veil fungus (Dictyphora) - odor like rotting meat
(c) Shelf fungi, important decomposers of wood
(d) Puffballs emitting spores

Fungal Reproduction
Complicated; some involved both stages of asexual and sexual.
Asexual Sporulation (spores) Budding (smaller cell
develops while attached to parent
Fragmentation (piece of mycelium break off and forms new individual)
In fungi, most nuclei are haploid (single set of chromosomes)

Fungal Reproduction
Sexual Use of fruiting
bodies, which differ

Can occur in harsh environments (tundra, deserts, rocky coasts), also in rain forest, temperate woodlands and bare rock
Important food source Vulnerable to environmental
disturbance, ∴ used to assess effects of pollution
Other uses: dyes, perfumes, litmus paper

![Page 24: KINGDOM FUNGI - Mme Quesnel...in the Kingdom Fungi Lichens Composite organism depends on 2-way relationship Fungus + photosynthetic organism (e.g. cyanobacteria, unicellular green](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022043005/5f8d4fc9437ef20a2923980b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Why are Fungi Important?
WWI, bacterial infections killed more soldiers than bullets.
1928 Dr. Andrew Fleming working at St. Mary’s Hospital in London noticed that mold growing on staph bacterial culture plates had killed the pathogen
zone of dead bacteria
Penicillin
![Page 25: KINGDOM FUNGI - Mme Quesnel...in the Kingdom Fungi Lichens Composite organism depends on 2-way relationship Fungus + photosynthetic organism (e.g. cyanobacteria, unicellular green](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022043005/5f8d4fc9437ef20a2923980b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Why are Fungi Important?
Penicillin kills bacteria by interfering with their ability to synthesize cell wall.
Produce antibiotics to fight off bacterial infections
