Ascomycota is a phylum of the kingdom Fungi that, together with the Basidiomycota, forms the subkingdom Dikarya. Its members are commonly known as the sac fungi or ascomycetes. It is the largest phylum of Fungi, with over 64,000 species.
The green algae are a large, informal grouping of algae consisting of the Chlorophyta and Charophyta/Streptophyta, which are now placed in separate divisions, as well as the potentially more basal Mesostigmatophyceae, Chlorokybophyceae and Spirotaenia.
The brown algae (singular: alga), comprising the class Phaeophyceae, are a large group of multicellular algae, including many seaweeds located in colder waters within the Northern Hemisphere. Most brown algae live in marine environments, where they play an important role both as food and as a potential habitat.
》They are also known as "The sac fungi".
》 Mycelium is uninucleate and septate.
》Members of ascomycetes are multicellular but really unicellular like yeast.
》 Septa are found in mycelium of ascomycetes.
》Pores are present in septum.
》Asexual reproduction by conidia.
》 Sexual reproduction by ascospore.
》Penicillium
》Aspergillus
》Claviceps
》Ascobolus: Its a member of ascomycetes is grown on dung hence it is called coprophilous fungi.
