Explain about the Deuteromycota - Fungi?

Deuteromycota - Deuteromycetes or fungi imperfecti reproduce by means of conidia. These have either lost the capacity for sexual reproduction or it has never been observed. Sexual spores if observed in the members of Deuteromycota, it is reclassified into a different genus and placed accordingly into appropriate division.

Molecular systematics places the Deuteromycota among their closest relatives in Eumycota. Fungi imperfecti are important as many of them are human pathogens. Few are important industrially and are involved in antibiotics and food production. Some produce mycotoxins, which are highly toxic and carcinogens to animals and humans. Example: Aspergillus, Penicillium.
