Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Basidiomycota and Ascomycota form the two major groups of fungi known as the Dikarya. They are sister groups because they share a common ancestor that is not shared with other fungal groups such as Glomeromycota, Chytrids, or Zygospore fungi. Lichens are not a fungal group but rather a mutualistic association between a fungus and a photosynthetic partner such as an alga or cyanobacterium.
