Dikaryotic cells are a unique feature of some types of fungi. They are formed post plasmogamy when the two compatible nuclei fuse. In comparison, diploid cells are found throughout the various kingdoms. Diploid cells are those in which each chromosome can be paired with a partner. For example, human cells are diploids.
