Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Necrotrophic fungi obtain nutrients by killing plant cells and feeding on the dead tissue. They release toxins and enzymes that destroy host plant cells, causing necrosis. Biotrophic fungi obtain nutrients from living plant tissues without causing significant harm to their host. Enzytrophic and parasitic fungi are not commonly used terms in mycology.
