An order of fungi in the subdivision Mucoromycotina. Mucorales species are typically fast-growing, with wide hyphae lacking septa; the hyphae may be simple or ramified and support sac-like sporangia filled with asexual sporangiospores. Many species are known to damage stored food, but others can cause mycosis, generally in patients already infected with other diseases.
