Evolutionary Trends in Monera Kingdom: Archaebacteria, Eubacteria, and Actinomycetes
Monera, the simplest yet diverse kingdom, is divided into Archaebacteria and Eubacteria. Archaebacteria are ancient, thriving in extreme conditions, while Eubacteria encompass true bacteria with various metabolic capabilities. Actinomycetes, unique filamentous bacteria, play vital roles in soil ecosystems. Explore the fascinating evolutionary tendencies and characteristics of these groups within the Monera kingdom.

Presentation Transcript
Evolutionary tendencies in Monera Kingdom Monera is divided into two groups Archeabacteria Eubacteria Archeabacteria: Ancient bacteria/ most primitive bacteria Live in extreme and harsh conditions Extremophiles Cell wall- polysaccharides and surface layer proteins (S proteins), peptidoglycan is absent in cell wall. Thermoacidophiles- hot sulphur springs (Sulfobolus) Methanogene - marshy areas/ gut of cows and buffaloes (Metahnococcus) Halophiles Extreme salty conditions (Halococcus)
Eubacteria True bacteria Autotrophic /Heterotrophic Photosynthetic/ Chemosynthetic Cyanobacteria Pathogenic bacteria https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6NV0Bq3qYVU
Actinomycetes Unicellular, branched, filamentous, unique bacteria resembling fungus mycellia. Radiating filaments Soil microbe/ ubiquitous Gram positive Saprophytic/ Pathogenic
