Disadvantage and advantage
Over 400,000 species 150 species cause disease Other non pathogenic species emerged Food spoilage Plant disease, destroy tumber, textile Decay plant and animals in soil Production of antibiotics Organic acids, soya sauce Genetic and biochemical scientific model

Habitat
free living few are normal flora infection originated from exogenous traumatic or inhalation don't contain chlorophyll can’t synthesize macromolecules from CO2 lead a heterotrophic existing saprobes, symbionts, commensal, parasites

Pathogenicity of fungi
A bunch of fungi can cause disease due to ability to adapt to host tissues dermatophytes (metabolize keratin) systemic fungi grow at 37Ć and survive at low oxidation reduction state some fungi have capsule

Structure of fungi
Cell wall chitin and glucan Plasma membrane ergosterol Nucleus Double membrane with pores rich in RNA Cytoplasm mitochondria, vacules and so on

Mold form
spore germinate Filament (hyphae) Divide by septa Uni or multinucleated Some fungi have no septa (Coenocytic hyphae) Zygomycota
Mycelium A mass of hyphae Aerial mycelium Submerged mycelium
![Page 9: Introduction to Medical Mycology](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022081413/5469583caf7959285a8b4659/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Types of septa
Simple solid plate with out pores With single pores With several pores (sieve-like appearance) Ascomycota and Deuteromycota Barrel shaped apparatus called dolipore Hook-like bridge between cells (clamp-connection) Basidiomycota Mycelium arrangement Simple Form complex tissue Hyphae loss its individuality Take column, rope, ball and other forms

Yeast form
Spore germinate Oval, round, elongated single cell Reproduce by budding Some by fission Moist or mucoid colonies Pseudohyphae True hyphae Depend on growth condition and species

Dimorphic fungi
Important mycotic agents Yeast form in host tissue (37Ć) or in vivo Mold or mycelium in 25Ć or environment Histoplasma capsulatum, Sporothrix schenckii Some have spherules with endospores Coccidiodes immitis Some produce sclerotia bodies (chromo-) Some produce tick conidia (adiaspore) Never reproduce inside host Emmonisa parva

Growth
Mycelium Grow equally in all direction Circular colony in solid medium Globose colony in liquid medium Most fungi grow at 25Ć Some are grow at 37-50Ć Aspergillus fumigatus, Cladosporium trichoides PH 6.6 to 6.8

Nutritional requirements
Absorb rather than digest Require organic compounds Facultative parasites Few are obligate parasites Rhinosporidium seeberi Loboa loboi Carbohydrates (glucose) Organic or inorganic nitrogen (ammonium
compounds) Some require vitamins (anthropophilic
dermatophytes)

Reproduction
Asexual (anamorphic state) In filaments fungi Free cell formation inside sporangium Zygomycota Zygospores Budding out as new structure Fragmentation of the fertile hyphae Conidia (Ascomycota and Basidiomycota,
Deuteromycota Pattern of conidia Thallic conidia produce from entire parent cell Blastic conidia from part of parent cell
