MULTICELLULAR FUNGI

MOLDS

UNICELLULAR FUNGI

YEAST

The body of a fungus is referred to as either a ___

SOMA

The body of a mold or fleshy fungus consists of long, loosely packed filaments called ____

HYPHAE

In most molds the hyphae are divided into one cell units called ________

SEPTATE HYPHAE

In some fungi, the hyphae have no septa and look like long multinucleated cells called ____

COENOCYTIC HYPHAE

Under the right environmental conditions the hyphae grow to form a filamentous mass known as a ____

MYCELIUM

The part of the hyphae responsible for reproduction is called reproductive or _____ hyphae.

AERIAL

FUNGI CLASSIFICATION - spores are formed on hyphae of fungi - reproduce by the process of cell division. - When these hyphal spores germinate, they are identical to the parent.

ASEXUAL FUNGAL SPORES

FUNGI CLASSIFICATION - These fungi will have same characteristics of both parents - The spores are produced by the fusion of nuclei from two opposite fungi of the same species.

SEXUAL

- are conjugative fungi - They reproduce both sexually (zygospores) and asexually (sporangiospores). - An example is: A. Rhizopus nigricans , a black bread mold.

ZYGOMYCOTA

- also called sac fungi - have sac-like cells called asci - These are yeasts, truffles, morels, and common molds. - Fungi in this group reproduce sexually and asexually. - Their sexual spores (conidiosphores) freely detach with the slightest movement (conidia) and therefore can cause infection (opportunistic disease) or an allergic reaction.

ASCOMYCOTA

- causes blastomycosis, which is a general pulmonary disease. Histoplasma a fungus found in bird and bat droppings; - It causes histoplasmosis, which is known as the fungusflu.

BLASTOMYCES

- Also called club fungus - includes mushrooms, toadstools, smuts, and rusts - Sexually produced basidiospores are formed externally on a base pedestal, producing a club-shaped structure called a basidium (basidia, plural). - Basidia can be found on visible fruiting bodies called basidiocarps, which are positioned on stalks. - A mushroom is a basidiocarp

BASIDIOMYCOTA

- Also known as fungi imperfecti - have no sexual reproduction (or none that can be observed) - They cause pneumocystis which infects people who have a compromised immune system. - Examples are: 1. Penicillium notatum, which produceS penicillin. 2. Candida albicans, which causes vaginal yeast infections in humans.

DEUTEROMYCOTA

caused by Piedraia hortae fungal infection of scalp hair and, less commonly, eyebrows and eyelashes.

BLACK PIEDRA

• usually caused by Trichosporon beigelii • a fungal infection of moustache, beard, pubic, and axilla hair

WHITE PIEDRA

caused by Malassezia furfur a ringworm infection that affects the skin of the chest or back and, less commonly, the arms, thighs, neck, and face.

TINEA VERSICOLOR

• caused by Hortaea werneckii • a ringworm infection of the palms of the hands and, less commonly, the neck and feet.

TINEA NIGRA

• infection of the beard and moustache

TINEA BARBAE

• scalp, eyebrows, eyelashes

TINEA CAPITIS

• face, trunk, major limbs

TINEA CORPORIS

• groin, perineal and perianal areas.

TINEA CRURIS

• soles and between toes

TINEA PEDIS

• nails

TINEA UNGUINUM

- Sporothrix schenckii - dimorphic fungus, and typically affects the skin of an extremity

SPOROTRICHOSIS

- Caused by various species of moulds - is a chronic, spreading infection of the skin and subcutaneous tissues, usually affecting a lower extremity

CHROMOMYCOSIS

- caused by various moulds - are chronic granulomatous infections that involve the feet (usually), hands, or other areas of the body. - Some of these subcutaneous mycoses can be quite grotesque in appearance.

MYCETOMAS

________ are also known as tinea (ringworm) infections and dermatomycoses.

DERMATOPHYTES

• yeast infection of the oral cavity • common in infants, elderly patients, and immunosuppressed individuals. • White, creamy patches occur on the tongue, mucous membranes, and the corners of the mouth • It can be a manifestation of disseminated Candida infection (candidiasis) • Candida albicans is the yeast and the fungus most commonly isolated from clinical specimens— sometimes isolated as a pathogen and sometimes isolated as a contaminant.

THRUSH DISEASE

• It starts as a lung infection, but spreads via the bloodstream to the brain. • It usually presents as a subacute or chronic meningitis. Infection of the lungs, kidneys, prostate, skin, and bone may also occur. • It is a common infection in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) patients.
