Who is apart of the Phylum Zygomycota?
nan
The Phylum Zygomycota includes a group of fungi that produce zygospores as part of their life cycle. The members of this phylum are usually saprophytic, living on dead organic matter, but some are parasitic or pathogenic on plants or animals. Some examples of fungi belonging to this group are black bread mold (Rhizopus stolonifer), which is commonly found on bread and fruit and is responsible for the spoilage of food, and Pilobolus, a fungus that can shoot its spores up to six feet away using a special structure called sporangiophore. Other examples include Mucor, Absidia, and Rhizomucor, among others. These fungi are characterized by their lack of septa or crosswalls in their hyphae, and their reproduction through the fusion of haploid hyphae to produce diploid zygospores.
