Amoebozoa are not fungi

The description explains that this is a fungal progress, but the final sentence talks about Amoebozoa undergoing this process, however Amoebozoa are protists, which are not fungi. So, is it a process that looks like plasmogomy that the Amoebozoa are going through, or is it that it has been discovered that other eukaryotes are able to also undergo plasmogomy?

Will look at the reference if I get time to further work this out. Astrophyte (talk) 18:33, 12 June 2026 (UTC)

Looking briefly into it, it seems that plasmogomy is not a process isolated to fungi, but also plants and protists can do it. How cool!

Once I have understood a bit better, I will add this to the article page. Astrophyte (talk) 18:37, 12 June 2026 (UTC)
