Classes of kingdom-Fungi are
(i) Mode of nutrition
Phycomycetes Saprotrophic and parasitic
Ascomycetes Saprotrophic and parasitic
Basidiomycetes Saprotrophic, parasitic and
predaceous
Deuteromycetes Parasitic and saprotrophic.
(ii) Mode of reproduction
Phycomycetes Asexual reproduction occurs by
zoospores (motile) or by aplanospores (non-motile).
Sexual reproduction is by gametangial fuston and
gametic fusion.
Ascomycetes Asexual reproduction is by conidia
and sexual reproduction is by gametangial contact,
spermatisation and somatogmny.
Basidiomycetes Asexual spores are generally not
found but vegetative reproduction by fragrnentation
is common. Sexual reproduction is by somatogamy.
Deuteromycetes Reproduce only by asexual spores
called conidia. Sexual reproduction is not reported.
