Fungi have a variety of parts that can be classified into systems just like the human body. The below anatomical structure systems were developed by Devyn Collier Johnson.
Agaricales (Typical Mushrooms)
- Reproductive System: lamellae, spores
- Pilus System: cap, lamellae, spores, scales
- Stipe System: stalk, annulus, volva
- Protective System: universal veil, partial veil
- Rudimentary System: volva, annulus
- Reticulate System: mycelia, rhizomorphs
Lycoperdales
- Reproductive System: gleba, spores, spore sac
- Reticulate System: mycelium, rhizomorphs
- Subterraneus System: mycelium, rhizomorphs, stalk
- Body System: spore sac, rays
Molds
- Reproductive System: spores, sporangiophore, basidium, ascus, suspensor, progametangia, gametangia
- Reticulate System: hyphae, mycelium, stolon hyphae, rhizoidal hyphae
