Explain about the Classification of Fungi?
The fungi, as you may recall reading above, is now placed in a separate kingdom called Myceteae. Traditionally, fungi were divided into four sub-divisions based on the mode of sexual reproduction as - Zygomycota, Ascomycota, Basidiomycota and Deuteromycota. Now, molecular microbiologists have put Deuteromycotina among their closed relatives in Eumycota (true fungi). The new sub-divisions are Zygomycota, Ascomycota, Basidiomycota and Chytridiomycota based on 18s rRNA studies.
