Hypothetical types of biochemistry in the late 1960s, these machines are often classed as computers (or computer-guided robots) and filed under "silicon-based life", even though the silicon backing matrix of these processors is not nearly as fundamental to their operation as carbon is for "wet life". Arsenic, which is chemically similar to phosphorus, while poisonous for most life forms on Earth, is incorporated into the biochemistry of some organisms. Some marine algae incorporate arsenic into complex organic molecules such as arsenosugars and arsenobetaines. Fungi and bacteria can produce volatile methylated arsenic compounds. Arsenate reduction and arsenite oxidation have been observed in microbes ("Chrysiogenes arsenatis").
International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants International Botanical Congress have produced revised versions of these "Rules", later called the "International Code of Botanical Nomenclature", and then "International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants". The Nomenclature Section of the 18th International Botanical Congress in Melbourne, Australia (2011) made major changes: Some important versions are listed below. Specific to botany More general International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants The International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (ICN) is the set of rules and recommendations dealing with the formal botanical names that are given to plants, fungi and a few other groups
