In Fungi , the fruiting body (also known as '''sporocarp''') is a multicellular structure on which Spore -producing structures, such as Basidia or Asci , are borne. The fruiting body is part of the sexual phase of a fungal Life Cycle , with the rest of the life cycle being characterized by Vegetative Mycelial growth. Fruiting bodies that are visible to the naked eye, especially fruiting bodies a more or less Agaricoid morphology, are often referred to as Mushrooms . Multicellular spore-producing structures on fungus-like organisms, such as Slime Mold s, and some colonial Bacteria , such as the Myxobacteria , are also called "fruiting bodies". |
