 Unit- II & VI of Second Year

In this part Unit-II and Unit -VI of second year is being clubbed for easy preparation as they related in every aspect. Unit-II is Microbiology with Bacteria and Virus dealt separately. The Unit-VI is the last one dealing Plants, Microbes in Human welfare. In this Unit 13 and 14 chapters are included. 14th chapter is more related to Microbiology. The 13th chapter is more related to genetics and biotechnology. Particularly the 13th chapter is important for match the following type of questions. For long term students the last Unit is new one. The student is advised to go through carefully as we can expect nearly 8 questions from this part. As there is some deviation from the last year syllabus long term student need an extra attention on this chapters.
