Read the following statements and choose the set of correct statements: In the members of Ascomycetes, A. They are mostly multicellular, e.g., Penicillium , or rarely unicellular, e.g., yeast. B. The mycelium is branched and septate. C. Asexual spores are conidia produced endogenously on special mycelium called conidiophores. D. Sexual spores are called ascospores which are produced endogenously in sac like asci. E.

Step-by-step solution

Statement A is correct as members of Ascomycetes are mostly multicellular (e.g., Penicillium ) and rarely unicellular (e.g., yeast). Statement B is correct as their mycelium is branched and septate. Statement C is incorrect because asexual spores (conidia) are produced exogenously, not endogenously, on special mycelium called conidiophores. Statement D is correct as sexual spores (ascospores) are produced endogenously in sac-like asci. Statement E is correct as morels and truffles are edible members of Ascomycetes
