Dikarya
Dikarya
is a
subkingdom
of
Fungi
that includes the phyla
Ascomycota
and
Basidiomycota
, both of which in general produce
dikaryons
, may be
filament
ous or
unicellular
, but are always without
flagella
. The Dikarya are most of the so-called "higher fungi", but also include many
anamorphic
species that would have been classified as
molds
in historical literature.
Phylogenetically
the two phyla regularly group together. In a 1998 publication,
Thomas Cavalier-Smith
referred to this group as the Neomycota.
