Ascomycota, commonly known as sac fungi, is a division of fungi characterized by the production of spores in a sac-like structure called an ascus. This group plays crucial roles in various ecosystems, including decomposing organic matter, forming symbiotic relationships with plants (like mycorrhizae), and contributing to nutrient cycling. Ascomycota includes important species used in food production, such as yeast and truffles, as well as some pathogens affecting plants and animals. Overall, their diverse functions significantly impact both natural ecosystems and human industries.
