Morphology and
classification of Fungi
Dr Sara Neha
• Fungi are eukaryotic organisms. The vegetative body of a
fungus is called thallus which is either unicellular ( Eg Yeast)
or multicellular (Eg Molds).
• The fungal cell wall is made up of chitin.
• The plasmalemma covers the cytoplasm and all cell organelles.
• Nucleus is usually small and mitochondria, endoplasmic
reticulum and vacuoles are present.
• Fungi contain filaments called the hyphae (singular: Hypha).
• The hyphae have internal cross walls called the septum
(singular: Septa).
• Fungi may be septate or aseptate.
• The septa of many species have pores, allowing cytoplasm to
flow freely from one cell to the next.
• Cytoplasmic movement within the hypha provides a means to
transport of materials. The hyphae may be branched.
• A mass of hyphae that is not a reproductive structure is called a
mycelium.
Vegetative mycelium- hyphae that penetrate the
supporting medium and absorb nutrients.
Aerial mycelium- hyphae that projects above the medium
and produce reproductive structures called conidia.
Yeasts
• Yeasts occur in the form of oval or round bodies that reproduce
by asexual process called budding.
• Unicellular
•In microscopic appearance of the colony is pasty,resembling
Bacterial colonies.
• Eg Cryptococcus Neoformans
Yeast-like
• They grow partly as yeast and partly as elongated cells
resembling hyphae.
•Reproduce by Budding and fission.
• Eg Candida albicans
Filamentous fungi/Mould
• It consists of Mycelium. They reproduce by the formation of
spores.
•Microscopically ,colonies may have a surface texture that is
cotton woollyvelvety.
• Eg Aspergillus, Penicillium
Dimorphic fungi
• It exhibits yeast form in the host tissue in vitro at 37° C and
mycelial form in vitro at 22-25 degree C
• Eg Histoplasma capsulatum
