ascocarp

Japanese: ascocarp

…When sexual reproduction occurs, reproductive organs form on the hyphae, forming special structures. In flagellated fungi, these are the zygote and oospore, in zygomycetes, the zygospore, in ascocarp, and in basidiomycetes, the basidiocarp. The following classification system has been developed based on the characteristics of these organs. …

From [Fruiting body]

...Mushrooms are large, conspicuous fruiting bodies. The fruiting body of ascocysts is called an ascocarp, and consists of a group of ascocysts surrounded by multiple layers of binucleate hyphae (cyst-forming filaments) and haploid hyphae. The ascocarp can be spherical and closed, spherical or flask-shaped and open, or disc- or cup-shaped with the ascocyst layer exposed.

From [Zoya]

...Eventually, two nuclei fuse at the tip cell of the hyphae, and then through meiosis, eight nuclei form, each of which becomes the nucleus of an ascospore. Ascospores usually gather together in large numbers and form a mass-like structure (ascocarp) surrounded by numerous hyphae. In addition, among the sporangia of mosses, those of mosses are called capsules, while those of liverworts are sometimes called theca. ...

From [Lichen]

… Lichens reproduce sexually by spores and asexually by sporulation, dehiscence, etc. Spores are formed in the ascocarp (a perianthium). The ascocarps are dish-shaped, linear, flask-shaped, etc., and are persistent, and spores are produced throughout the year. …

…有性生殖を行うと，この菌糸上に生殖器官が形成され，特殊な構造ができる。鞭毛菌類では接合子zygote，卵胞子oospore，接合菌類では接合胞子zygospore，子囊菌類では子囊果ascocarp，担子菌類では担子器果basidiocarpがそうである。これらの器官の形質をもとに次の分類体系ができている。…

【子実体】より

…いわゆるキノコは大型でよく目立つ子実体である。　子囊菌類の子実体は子囊果ascocarpといい，一群の子囊を2核性の菌糸(造囊糸)と単相の菌糸が幾重にもとりまいた構造をなしている。子囊果の形は球状で閉鎖しているもの，球状ないしフラスコ状で開口しているもの，盤状ないし杯状で子囊の層が裸出しているものなどさまざまである。…

【子囊】より

…やがて，この菌糸の先端細胞で2核が融合し，その後，減数分裂を経て8核となり，それぞれが子囊胞子の核となる。子囊はふつう多数集まり，それを多数の菌糸がとりまいた塊状の構造(子囊果ascocarp)を形成する。なお，コケ植物の胞子囊のうち，蘚（せん）類のものを蒴（さく）capsuleというのに対して，苔類のものを子囊thecaということがある。…
