a good report on fungus - The kingdom of Fungi contains single-celled and multicellular organisms that absorb nutrients for food. Fungi‚ together with bacteria decay and decompose organic matter. Some fungi can be parasitic and cause serious diseases in plants and animals. Though considered an individual kingdom today‚ traditionally fungi were classified as plants with no stems‚ leaves‚ or chlorophyll. About 100‚000 species of fungi are known. Most fungi are made of protoplasm-containing tubes

Fructigena The fungus Sclerotinia fructigena is a plant pathogen which causes brown rot disease in apples‚ peaches and some other fruits‚ characterized by comparative firmness of the invaded tissue. This fungus often infects the fruits through wounds caused by birds and wasps before the fruits are harvested. Experimental Objective To discover more about the fungus Sclerotinia (Monilinia) fructigena including : 1. Method to isolate pure samples. 2.To look at pure samples of the fungus microscopically

ectomycorrhizae on micropropagated plantlets is suggested as these help in nutrients uptake and reduce environmental stresses. Therefore‚ the present work was undertaken with the objective of studying interaction of Laccaria laccata‚ an ectomycorrhizal fungus‚ with micropropagated plantlet of the hybrid under in-vitro conditions. Nodal segments containing axillary buds from newly developed fresh shoots were taken and treated with 1% carbendazim (50% WP) for 10 minutes followed by surface sterilization

Koch’s Postulates Introduction Koch created four guidelines to determine the causal agents of disease in humans‚ animals‚ and plants. Koch proved that a disease-causing agent could be transferred from one organism to another and create the same illness. Isolation of pure cultures and the introduction of the disease-causing agent to a healthy organism will transmit the disease and infect the inoculated organism. Koch’s four guidelines by which one must follow to transmit a disease from an infected

INTRODUCTION There are 4 learning goals for this lab: 1. Collect samples and compile data from at least 2 sources (soil; water) of your choice. 2. Identify at least 2 Prokaryotes (bacteria) and 2 Eukaryotes (fungus) in your samples. 3. Research the importance of bacteria and fungus to Earth in a non-medical context. 4. Compile a high-quality‚ 3+ resource (excluding the lab worksheet)‚ MLA-cited in-text laboratory report using the scientific method by class due date. HYPOTHESIS The purpose

chlorotic when compared with healthy seedlings. . The rapid elongation of infected seedlings can be up to 3 times taller than healthy seedlings. The rapid elongation of infected plants is due to the production of gibberellin‚ a plant hormone‚ by the fungus. Symptom development is influenced by the amount of inoculum present‚ the strain of the pathogen and the relative quantities of gibberellin and fusaric acid (which causes stunting) produced. Bakanae plants are often visible above healthy rice plants

Biology 12 3rd Exam Reviewer Exercise 9: The Prokaryotes Prokaryotes are subdivided into archaebacteria and eubacteria. Archaebacteria - no peptidoglycan in cell wall Ex. Halob acterium Eubacteria - has peptidoglycan in cell wall Eubacteria - can be differentiated by Gram staining Gram positive: purple-blue‚ mostly peptidoglycan susceptible to penicillin Gram negative: pink-red‚ less peptidoglycan‚ has lipopolysaccharides‚ susceptible to EDTA Gram negative can be further differentiated into

Lecheria‚ Calamba. The study would test the antifungal effect of the pineapple’s skin extract on Candida albicans. Instruments The researchers will use Candida albicans that they will buy from University of the Philippines Los Baños (UPLB). The fungus‚ then‚ will be divided into three setups: Set A‚ Set B‚ and Set C. Each set will contain Candida albicans placed in a Petri dish. These sets will be given different amounts of the Pineapple skin’s soap extract; Set A will be given 40%‚ Set B will

The fungus can be spread by human‚ animals‚ wind and water and gets active when dew occurs on the edge of the grass. Wet leaves also favourable for the fungus. (Smiley et al‚ 3th edition). Snow mold can occur in every month of the year and doesn’t exactly need a snow cover in order to be present. This fungus grows in cold and humid weather
