Those non-green plants which obtain their food (or nutrition) from dead and decaying organic matter are called saprophytes. The non-green plants called fungi derive their food from dead and decaying organic matter, so fungi are saprophytes. Some of the common fungi are mushroom, bread mould and yeast.
