Find out the incorrect statement.
Options
- AIn phycomycetes, asexual reproduction is through motile as well as nonmotile spores.
- BIn ascomycetes, asexual spores are formed exogenously and called conidia.
- CIn basidiomycetes, basidiospores are produced endogenously, unlike ascomycetes, where ascospores are produced
- DAll are correct statements
Correct answer
C. In basidiomycetes, basidiospores are produced endogenously, unlike ascomycetes, where ascospores are produced
Step-by-step solution
Kingdom Fungi is divided into four classes depending upon the mode of spore and fruiting bodies formation and morphology of mycelium. These are class Phycomycetes, Ascomycetes, Basidiomycetes, and Deuteromycetes. Basidiomycetes are club fungi as they have a club-shaped organ known as a basidium. This structure bears spores on the outside of its body and thus differs from ascus in Ascomycetes which bear spores inside. In Phycomycetes asexual reproduction is through motile and non-motile. Mushrooms belong to this cla
