During sexual reproduction, the ascocarp undergo meiosis to form ascospores. The lifecycle of basidiomycetes includes alternation of generations. Spores are generally produced through sexual reproduction, rather than asexual reproduction. The clubshaped basidium carries basidiospores. The Deuteromycetes use strictly asexual reproduction only (sexual reproduction absent). Zygomycetes reproduce asexually by producing sporangiospores. Sexual reproduction occurs by conjugation and form zygospores.
