Parasitism is the relationship between two species. An organism lives on or within the body which is called the parasite and other organism is called the host.
Fungi is a parasite. They feed off a living host. They invade a living host and obtain nourishment and often causing damage to its structure and function.
- Parasitic fungi that live on animals are known as zoo-pathogenic fungi. These fungi cause several diseases such as epidermophytosis, ringworm, favus, and tinea versicolor.
- Parasitic fungi that live on plants are known as phytopathogenic fungi. These fungi feed on other fungi. This form of behavior is called Mycoparasitism.
