In this article we will discuss about the phylogenetic relationships of phycomycetes. Fascinatingly speculative accounts have appeared from time to time with regard to the origin and phylogeny of the Phycomycetes without leading to any agreement. More critical and comprehensive work will have to be taken up on the various groups of lower organisms before drawing any widely acceptable conclusion. [...]
In this article we will discuss about the nature of asci and ascospores. The members of the Ascomycetes are characterized by the development of asci and ascospores. In the large majority of them the asci are produced in an ascocarp. There are also Ascomycetes whose asci remain naked and are not enclosed in an ascocarp. In general, they remain intermingled [...]
In this article we will discuss about the classification of ascomycetes into various orders. The classification of the Ascomycetes constitutes perhaps the most difficult taxonomic problem in mycology. The large number of species and the morphological complexities and variations in the Ascomycetes have often led to an understandable hesitancy on the part of the majority of mycologists to accept revisions [...]
