produce and contain aeciospores. These are transfer spores in rusts fungi that
require two hosts, and they are dikaryotic.
Anastomosis - correct answer ✔The fusion of hyphae resulting in the sharing
of cytoplasm and genetic content. A characteristic of Ascomycota and
Basidiomycota
APHIS - correct answer ✔Animal and Plant Health Protection Service.
This unit of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) is responsible
for maintaining and limiting the spread of invasive species and pathogens
through inspections of imported agriculture products, regulation of interstate
transport, and maintenance of quarantines.
Apothecium
(pl= Apothecia) - correct answer ✔The cup-like ascospore bearing structure
(Ascoma) of the ascomycetes. The asci are arranged on a hymenium that is
exposed at maturity. The Discomycetes is the traditional name used are the
Ascomycota which produce this structure.
Appressorium
(pl= Appressoria) - correct answer ✔A swelling on a germ tube or hypha, that
adheres to the surface of the host, and facilitates subsequent penetration of

projections called sterigmata.
Buller's Drop - correct answer ✔A drop of liquid that appears on the base of
the basidiospore just before it is actively discharged.Buller's Drop may also
refer to the mechanism by which the shifting mass of the spore caused by the
shift of the droplet of liquid actively propels the basidiospore away from the
basidium.
Cell Compartment - correct answer ✔In septate filamentous fungi, the
septum is often open allowing cytoplasm and organelles to move freely from
one 'cell' to the next. Therefore, I use the term cell compartment to refer to
each 'cell'
Cephalosporin - correct answer ✔one of several broad spectrum antibiotic
substances obtained from fungi and related to penicillin (trade names
Mefoxin); addition of side chains has produced semisynthetic antibiotics with
greater antibacterial activity
Chitin - correct answer ✔A structural polysaccharide found in the cell walls of
most fungi. Composed of N-acetylglucosamine
