Rhizopus Rhizopus Rhizopus is a genus of common saprophytic fungi on plants and specialized parasites on animals. They are found on a wide variety of organic substrates, including "mature fruits and vegetables", jellies, syrups, leather, bread, peanuts, and tobacco. They are multicellular. Some "Rhizopus" species are opportunistic agents of human zygomycosis (fungal infection) and can be fatal. "Rhizopus" infections may also be a complication of diabetic ketoacidosis. This widespread genus includes at least eight species. "Rhizopus" species grow as filamentous, branching hyphae that generally lack cross-walls (i.e., they are coenocytic). They reproduce by forming asexual and sexual spores. In asexual reproduction,
Chlorophyll f Chlorophyll f Chlorophyll "f" is a type form of chlorophyll that absorbs further in the red (infrared light) than other chlorophylls. In 2010, it was reported from stromatolites from Western Australia's Shark Bay. The finding was made by scientists at the University of Sydney led by Professor Min Chen, and is the first discovery of a new form of chlorophyll in 60 years. However, the function of chlorophyll "f" in photosynthetic reactions is uncertain and the ecological distribution of chlorophyll "f" remains unknown. Based on NMR data, optical and mass spectra and density functional theory (DFT) simulation, it is confirmed
