Sac fungi

Sac fungi are not plants but a vast group of fungi characterized by their unique reproductive structure, the ascus, where spores develop. These fungi range from yeasts to mold types, thriving in diverse environments, often as decomposers, playing a crucial role in nutrient recycling. Their adaptable nature allows them to colonize a wide variety of organic materials, significantly influencing their ecosystems.
