The end club-shaped cellbecomes a diploid (2n) zygotewhen its two nuclei fuse.

Club-shaped cells,each dikaryotic (n + n),form at the margins ofmushroom gills.

After nuclear fusion, the 2n cellundergoes meiosis and bears fourhaploid spores at its tips.

sexual spore (n)at gill margin

After cytoplasmic fusion,new cells of the myceliumhave two nuclei (n + n).Spore-bearing mushroomsform from this mycelium.

Each germinating sporegives rise to a hyphathat grows and becomesa branching mycelium.
