A type of connection found within a single hyphal strand of a Basidiomycete fungus
Fungus
A fungus is a Eukaryote organism that is a member of the Kingdom Fungi . The fungi are a monophyletic group, also called the Eumycota , that is phylogeny distinct from the morphologically similar slime molds and water molds .... . It ensures that two adjacent hyphal cells (divided by septa
Septum
A septum is a partition separating two cavities or spaces. Examples include:*Nasal septum: the cartilage wall separating the nostrils of the human nose.... ) each have 2 different nuclei
Cell nucleus
In cell biology, the nucleus , also sometimes referred to as the "control center", is a membrane-enclosed organelle found in all eukaryote cell .... from mating with hyphae of another sexual type. It is used in the "nuclear shuffle" similar to that found in croziers
Crozier (mycology)
A crozier is an anatomical feature of many fungi in the phylum Ascomycota that form at the base of ascus and look like hook-topped shepherd?s staffs or stylized religious crosiers.... during sexual reproduction.
