Fungi imperfecti
The Fungi imperfecti or imperfect mushrooms (Deuteromycetes) are representatives of the higher mushrooms ( tube , stand or yoke mushrooms ), in whose development cycle the phase of sexual fertilization is missing or has not yet been discovered. The reproduction takes place through asexually formed spores ( conidia ) or purely vegetatively.
Usually the term Fungi imperfecti and even more Deuteromycetes or Deuteromycetes are used for the imperfect fungi from the Ascomycota department , as most of these fungi belong to this group.
The Fungi imperfecti are not a natural, but a form taxon . Traditionally, they are in the form of classes , trims , -families , -Gattunge n, TYPES divided. Mainly morphological features of the conidia carriers and the conidia formation are used for this classification. The imperfect fungi are anamorphic forms that no longer undergo teleomorphic development under natural conditions .
