A

Single cell diving by budding/fission

Kinda like animal cell but with a cell wall

Q

Ascomycota

A

Saprophytic stage (outside cell when infecting)
Conidia = non-motile asexual
Ascospores = sexual
Rice blast (most destructive plant pathogen)
Histoplasmosis (dimorphic)

Q

Gold standard

A

WGST
Identifies SNPs to create phylogenies to map clonal microbes
Synonymous/neutral SNPs are better (evolutionary informative, slow to mutate)
State conflicts = genome-wide SNP
