For phycomycetes class of fungus, incorrect statement is
Options
- Atheir mycelium is aseptate and coenocytic
- Bthe fusion of gametes results in the formation of zygospore.
- Cmodes of asexual reproduction are motile aplanospores and non-motile zoospores
- DParasitic fungus Albugo produces white spots on mustard leaves.
Correct answer
C. modes of asexual reproduction are motile aplanospores and non-motile zoospores
Step-by-step solution
Members of class Phycomycetes are also called algal fungi. In these members, asexual reproduction takes place by non-motile aplanospores and motile zoospores. Phycomycetes is the only class of fungi in which septa are absent so their mycelium becomes coenocytic (multinucleated). Sexual reproduction takes place by the fusion of gametes due to which diploid zygospore is formed. Albugo is parasitic fungi of mustard leaves.
