Mucormycosis caused by mucor fungi

Mucor fungi produces millions of spores (dark-hued, microscopic spherical structures) that are disseminated in air. These spores when land on moist surfaces, like plant material, compost piles, animal dung or soil, they begin to germinate and produce thread like structures called mycelia. The mycelia branch out and feed on sugars in their surroundings and grow.
