Types of hyphae (typubelike)
Hyphae divided into smaller sections by
partitions (septa)
More common in disease causing fungi
Septa have pores, which allow molecules and
Septate Hyphae
cytoplasm to move between cells
It’s able to close septa in they injured to
prevent fluid loss from the rest of fungi Advantages of septal hyphae:
body.
Aseptate Hyphae (coenocytic)
Nonseptate hyphae, lack of cross wall that
separates
It’s primitive fungi (ancestors of septate
hyphae)
Feed on de
releasing e
Eg. Mucor and Zygomycetes
organisms
Pseudo-Hyphae
Sausage like shape
Formed of elongated yeasts attached to each
other.
Dividing through budding
