alexopolous fungi classification

 System proposed by Constantine John Alexopoulos

Alexopoulos and Mims (1979) placed all fungi including slime moulds in Kingdom Myceteae of Superkingdom Eukaryonta. Kingdom Myceteae included 3 divisions, 8 subdivisions, 11 classes.

god and microbes

Prakalatha was asked by his father as where is god located? he simply replied that as he is everywhere. like that if we questioned to students as where is microbes located? they may replied that it is everywhere.our god has three duties such as creation,protection and destruction. microbe also played the same such as they create a new metabolites which is life saving antibiotics, microbes protects our body from invasive pathogens and microbes destroys dead decay as composting.
