1000x  We have had numerous samples with Fungi, yeast or mold

here is another set- different species of fungi

Yeasts, molds, and mushrooms are examples of fungi.

Asexual reproduction via vegetative spores or through mycelial fragmentation is  more common in many fungal species and allows for better and faster dispersal than sexual reproduction.

Fungal and yeast spores

Here is another, with funny shaped fruiting bodies like mushrooms only smaller

the mycelium usually extends out into the surrounding environment

Here is a different one, it had a green and black coloring

Mycelium is the vegetative part of a fungus, consisting of a mass of branching, thread-like hyphae

Here is another sample, again, different structure and look, low power

Higher magnification

These were from Gran stains of a MLSS from a wastewater treatment plant

Hyphae are the apically elongated walled filament

Notice how large the cells are compared to the small branching Nocardia filament

Even Thiothrix I with rectangular cells is small compared to the fungi

fluffy white hyphae

At very low power, it looks like a tangle of fiber or strings
