The thalloid body of a slime mould is a Plasmodium. The somatic phase of slime mould is called as Plasmodium. It contains multinucleate diploid protoplasm. Reproduction takes place through uninucleate spores present within the sporangia. Sporangia are a fruiting body-like structure. However, the true fruiting body is absent in slime mould. Protonema and mycelium are absent in lower fungi.
