Abstract
The study delves into the morphological adaptations of fungi, such as the development of hyphae, rhizomorphs, and spores, which aid in nutrient acquisition and survival during nutrient-scarce periods. Significantly, the thesis highlights the critical role fungi play in nutrient cycling, their interactions with other organisms, and their contribution to the ecological balance by acting as natural decomposers. It also examines the impact of fungi on agriculture and industry, noting their potential in bioremediation and as sources of pharmaceuticals due to their complex secondary metabolites.
