Neurospora is an Ascomycete used extensively in biochemical and genetic work. Ascomycetes possess branched, septate mycelium and form sexual ascospores inside asci.

Ascomycetes produce sexual ascospores endogenously inside sac-like asci. Basidiomycetes produce basidiospores exogenously on basidia. Both groups generally possess branched, septate mycelium.
