Question

Torula condition' occurs in [MP PMT 2001]
A) Rhizopus
B) Ulothrix
C) Spirogyra
D) Riccia

Answer 1

Answer:

A Rhizopus

when some species of like mucor they grow in high concentrated liquid medium of sugar and they brown up into small pieces called odia and further they grow like yeast by budding and this condition called Torula condition

Answer 2

Torula condition' occurs in A) Rhizopus.

What is the torula?

• When bacteria like mucor exist in a high-concentrated liquid medium of sugar, they brown up into minute pieces called Odia and then reproduce like yeast via budding, a condition called Torula.
• Rhizopus/Mucor hyphae produce little spherical oidia that proliferate by budding like yeast in a sugary, acidic liquid substrate.
• This stage of development is known as the torula stage.
• Yeast's budding stage is comparable to that of the Torula genus.
• The stage is called torula, and the process is called torulation.

About Rhizopus:

• Rhizopus is a fungal genus that contains saprophytic as well as parasitic species.
• They prefer surroundings that are damp or humid.
• Organic foods, such as vegetables, fruits, bread, jellies, and other preserves, contain them.
• The vegetative structure is made up of coenocytic (multinucleated) and branching hyphae.

Incorrect Options:

• Ulothrix is a genus of filamentous green algae that can be found in both fresh and salt water (family Ulotrichaceae).
• Each cell has a discernible nucleus, a central vacuole, and a large thin chloroplast with at least one pyrenoid.
• Spirogyra is a type of free-floating green algae found in freshwater environments such as ponds and lakes.
• Spirogyra, sometimes known as "pond silk" or "water silk," is a type of spirogyra. Their vegetative structure is unbranched and filamentous.
• The Marchantiales order of liverworts includes the genus Riccia.
• The roots, stems, and leaves of these plants are all thalloid, which means they have no root, stem, or leaf distinction.
