(3) Mucor - Dikaryophase is an incorrectly matched pair.

Mucor belongs to Phycomycetes class of Kingdom Fungi in which dikaryophase is not found.

Classes of Kingdom Fungi:

• Phycomycetes- This class of kingdom fungi is found in diverse places, also as parasites on plants. Example- rhizopus, mucor, etc.
• Ascomycetes- This class of kingdom fungi is also called sac-fungi. This class includes fungi that are used in research and some edible delicacies also. Example- neurospora, morels and truffles, etc.
• Basidiomycetes- This class of kingdom fungi is also called club-fungi. They propagate vegetatively by fragmentation. example- agaricus, puffballs, etc.
• Deuteromycetes- This class of kingdom fungi is also called fungi-imperfecta as their sexual and asexual modes of reproduction are unknown. example- alternaria, trichoderma, etc.

The dikaryophase is a unique feature of fungi of classes Asomycetes and Basidiomycetes.
