It is the life supporting planet with • Describe the characteristic features land forms like mountains, plateaus, of fungi. glaciers, etc., Life on earth exists within • Discuss on the structure and uses a complex structure called biosphere. of Mycorrhizae and Lichens.

Aspects of the morp­ hology and ontogeny of spores and sari, which were previously disputed, have been clarified. Monokaryotic hyphae grow more densely in the intercellular spaces of Tussilago leaves than the dikaryotic intercellular hyphae on Poa. Although ultrastructurally sbnilar, monokaryotic hyphae differ from dikaryotic hyphae in their interaction with host cell walls, often growing embedded in wall material which may project into the host cells. The frequency of penetration of Poa mesophyll cells by haustoria of the dikaryon is greater than that of Tussilago cells by the relatively undifferentiated intracellular hyphae of the monokaryon. Intracellular hyphae differ from haustoria in their irregular growth, septation, lack of a neck-band or markedly constricted neck, the deposition of host wall-like material in the external matrix bounded by the invaginated host plasmalemma and in the association of callose reactions \vith intracellular hyphae and adjacent parts of host walls.

  • Bot 316 Mycology and Fungal Physiology
    BOT 316 MYCOLOGY AND FUNGAL PHYSIOLOGY Dr Osondu Akoma 2011 BOT 316 MYCOLOGY AND FUNGAL PHYSIOLOGY INTRODUCTION HISTORICAL BACKGROUND Mycology is a classical translation of the Greek word Mykes logos which means mushroom discussion, thus mycology is the study of fungi. In the past this area of science was limited to the study of mushrooms but as science developed, the scope of the subject widened far beyond the objects seen with the naked eyes with the discovery of microscopes. The development of mycology cannot be isolated from that of science. The ancestry of fungi is ancient, dating back to the Devonian and Precambrian eras. The history is also influenced by calamities and man has always kept record from time and as such the first record of fungi was not that of observing fungi directly but that of their harmful effects. The Romans and Greeks have a lot in their records. Even in the Holy Bible there are many references of the fungi and their effects; Leviticus 14: 4-48, 1Kings 8:37, Deuteronomy 28:22. The first indication that man saw fungi as food was a report of death at Icarius. The first book devoted to fungi is the Van Sterbeek’s “Theatrum Fungerium” in 1675 and this work distinguished the edible from the poisonous mushrooms. The discovery of the microscope led to the systematic study of the fungi. Robert Hooke was credited with the first illustration of micro fungi in 1667 in his work titled Micrographa . The Greeks and Romans regarded fungi as mysterious things. They were regarded as the “evil formats of the earth originating from the mouth of vipers”.

KEY TO DIVISIONS AND SUB-DIVISIONS Taxonomy and Nomenclature Nomenclature is the naming of organisms. Both classification and nomenclature are governed by International code of Botanical Nomenclature, in order to devise stable methods of naming various taxa, As per binomial nomenclature, genus and species represent the name of an organism. Binomials when written should be underlined or italicized when printed. First letter of the genus should be capital and is commonly a noun, while species is often an adjective. An example for binomial can be cited as: Kingdom = Fungi Division = Eumycota Subdivision = Basidiomycotina Class = Teliomycetes Order = Uredinales Family = Pucciniaceae Genus = Puccinia Species = graminis Classification of Fungi An outline of classification (G.C.

  • ASCOMYCOTINA the 'Sac Fungi'
    ASCOMYCOTINA The ‘Sac fungi’ General character of ASCOMYCOTINA • Largest group of fungi – more than 32,000 species in 3,400 genera • Name derived from Greek word: askos – bag or bladder and mykes – fungus • Sexually produced spores (ascospores) are contained within a sac (ascus) • Include both saprophytic and parasitic species • Some are symbionts – about 40% of lichen have ascomycotina members as fungal partner • Majority are terrestrial but few are aquatic – marine and fresh water Vegetative structure • Thallus may be unicellular (Yeast) or mycelial • Mycelium is well developed with branched and septate hyphae • Septa with simple pore • Hyphae compactly or loosely arranged • Mycelium may be homokaryotic – all neclei are genetically similar or heterokaryotic – nuclei are genetically different • Some members (Eg. Xylaria, Claviceps) form hyphal aggregations – Stroma, Sclerotium Reproduction • Asexual or Sexual reproduction Asexual reproduction • By formation of spores • Conidia, Oidia or Chlamydospores Conidia • Important mode of asexual reproduction in Ascomycotina • Exogenous, non-motile spores • Produced on tip of conidiophores – branched or unbranced / unicellular or multicellular • Single or many chains of conidia are formed on a conidiophore • Conidia are generally formed basipetally • Formation of conidia on conidiophore (conidiogenesis) occurs in two ways – Blastic conidiogenesis: conidium develops by blowing out of wall of a cell, usually from the tip of a hypha – Thallic conidiogenesis: conidium develops from a pre-existing

Box 2003 Addis Abeba, Ethiopia Contents Introduction 1 Mastigomycota % Zygomycotina 3 Ascomycotina 41 Basidiomycotina § Deuteromycotina (5 G lossary H Preface Plant pathogenic fungi are numerous, diverse and belong to many groups of kingdom ‘Fungi’. Sometimes, fungal diseases can be identified by the symptoms, though unrelated species may cause similar expressions of the host plant. The pathogenicity of a fungus is ascertained by proving Koch’s postulates. The morphology of the fungus either on host or culture is an essential tool for knowing the type of the pathogen involved. A general purpose classificatory manual of plant pathogenic fungi is very essential in every plant pathological laboratory. This manual has been compiled as a teaching aid in the training course for Junior plant pathologists in the Institute of Agricultural Research. Its purpose is to serve as a guide in the classification of fungi and thereby in recognizing the genera of fungi associated with plant diseases. The keys to the fungi at various levels has been adopted from various sources, but mostly using the latest classification system. No attempt has been made to include all plant pathogenic genera, but used only those commonly occurring in some regions of Ethiopia. Effort has been made to include an illustration of the main fungal structures that go along with the descriptions of each group. Bibliogra­ phies are given at the end of each chapter. A brief glossary of technical terms has been included at the end.

  • History of Plant Pathology in India: D
    HISTORY OF PLANT PATHOLOGY LANDMARKS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF PLANT PATHOLOGY 1.Ancient period: A literature of European and vedic eras will give us some information on the plant diseases and their control measures. Earlier people were aware about plant diseases but they aware unable explain scientifically hence they believed that plant diseases were a manifestation of the wrath of God and, therefore, that avoidance or control of the disease depended on people doing things that would please that same superpower. In the fourth century b.c.; the Romans suffered so much from hunger caused by the repeated destruction of cereal crops by rusts and other diseases that they created a separate god, whom they named Robigus. To please Robigus, the Romans offered prayers and sacrifices in the belief that he would protect them from the dreaded rusts. The Romans even established a special holiday for Robigus, the Robigalia, during which they sacrificed red dogs, foxes, and cows in an attempt to please and pacify Robigus so he would not send the rusts to destroy their crops. The first person to study and write about the plant diseases is the Greek philosopher Theophrastus. He made observations on the plant diseases in his book enquiry into plants. His experiences were mostly based on imagination and observation but not on experimentation. Theophrastus (370 B.C. – 286 B.C) First botanist to study and write about the diseases of trees, cereals and legumes. He divided the plant diseases into external and Internal. External diseases are caused by external factors like Temperature, Moisture etc; internal diseases are caused by internal conditions of plant.
