of hyphae, which look like threads, or rootlets. The mat of hyphae may be very thickly woven. The fungus uses it to extract nutritients. The hyphae are...

type of fungus. It grows in the form of multicellular filaments called hyphae. In contrast, fungi that can adopt a single-celled growth habit are called...

the spores float out of the world. In sexual reproduction its hyphaes touch the hyphae of another Rhizopus mycelium. When they fuse, they make round balls...

plants, where the plant and the fungi need each other to grow. Zygomycete hyphae may be a syncytium, that is, having a mass of nuclei not divided into separate...

Pleosporaceae. The species has branched hyphae which are between 1.5 and 7.5 micrometre wide. In the beginning the hyphae are transparent but later their colour...

characterised by their hyphae. The hyphae are responsible for producing branch filaments at right and acute angles. Some hyphae are specialised with compact...

have thin thread-like cells called hyphae (singular: hypha) that absorb nutrients and anchor the fungus in place. Hyphae are not roots but can resemble threads...

cytoplasm and many nuclei, but are not divided into separate cells. Fungal hyphae are often syncytia. Lichen tissue may be syncytia with enclosed algal or...

heart from the left side. Fungi produce septa to partition filamentous hyphae into discrete cells. This short article about biology can be made longer...

much similar to fungi by its shape. They form long thin threads called hyphae that can differentiate into a chain of spores for reproduction. Almost all...

insects. They do not have wings. They live in the soil, and eat fungal hyphae, spores, pollen and other organic material. They need moist soils, and have...

the fungus lives inside the plant roots, and in the earth. The fungal hyphae are more efficient than plant roots at absorbing nutrients. Mycorrhizas...

mycelium is a highly branched network of multinucleate, usually colourless hyphae. The conidiospores are the main dispersal route of the fungi, and are often...

host must have them. Lichen: fungus+alga or bacterium. Mycorrhiza: fungal hyphae and roots of trees. Endosymbiont theory is the idea that eukaryote cells...

host must have them. Lichen: fungus+alga or bacterium. Mycorrhiza: fungal hyphae and roots of trees. Almost for certain, this happened to form the eukaryote...

inhibiting fungal growth, and accelerating epidermopoiesis, so that fungal hyphae are removed from the host body by normal replacement of skin. Several factors...

The "book lungs" of early spiders can be seen in cross-sections. Fungal hyphae can be seen entering plant material, acting as decomposers and mycorrhizal...
