Teleomorph, anamorph and holomorph
In mycology, the terms teleomorph, anamorph, and holomorph apply to portions of the life cycles of fungi in the phyla Ascomycota and Basidiomycota:
- Teleomorph: the sexual reproductive stage (morph), typically a fruiting body
- Anamorph: an asexual reproductive stage (morph), often mold-like; When a single fungus produces multiple morphologically distinct anamorphs, these are called synanamorphs.
- Holomorph: the whole fungus, including anamorphs and teleomorph.
