Q. Mark the incorrect statement for Deuteromycetes.

NTA AbhyasNTA Abhyas 2022

Solution:

Sexual reproduction is absent in deuteromycetes and only the asexual or vegetative phases of these fungi are known. When the sexual forms of these fungi were discovered they were moved into classes they rightly belong to. It is also possible that the asexual and vegetative stage have been given one name (and placed under deuteromycetes) and the sexual stage another (and placed under another class). Later when the linkages were established, the fungi were correctly identified and moved out of deuteromycetes.
