$1$. Vegetative reproduction: This occurs through fragmentation,fission,and budding.
$2$. Asexual reproduction: This occurs through the formation of spores such as conidia,sporangiospores,or zoospores.
$3$. Sexual reproduction: This involves the fusion of two haploid hyphae of compatible mating types. The process includes three distinct steps:
$(i)$ Plasmogamy: Fusion of protoplasm between two motile or non-motile gametes.
(ii) Karyogamy: Fusion of two nuclei.
(iii) Meiosis: Zygote undergoes meiosis to produce haploid spores.
