Advances in Macrofungi: Diversity, Ecology and Biotechnology: Progress in Mycological Research

Editat de Kandikere Ramaiah Sridhar, Sunil Kumar Deshmukh
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mar 2021
Advances in Macrofungi: Diversity, Ecology and Biotechnology discusses the diversity and ecology of edible, toxic, medicinal and mycorrhizal macrofungi; the impact of ectomycorrhizal fungi in terrestrial ecosystems, ectomycorrhizal complex in Boreal forests and commercial application of Pseudotsuga in silviculture; the nutritional evaluation and cultivation of edible wild mushrooms; the diversity of novel metabolites of macrofungi useful in food, pharmaceutical and cosmeceutical industries; mushrooms as tool for eco-friendly synthesis of nanoparticles and proteomics of edible and medicinal mushrooms. In addition, it covers experimental designs, methodological approaches, biogeochemical cycles, conceptual/hypothetical models and life history strategies, linking mycorrhizal diversity to plant performance, chemotaxonomy, role of mycorrhizae in forestry and macrofungi in nanotechnology. It provides a valuable resource to graduate, post-graduate and researchers (in botany, microbiology, ecology, biotechnology, forestry, life sciences and environmental sciences) to understand the diversity, ecology, therapeutic value, mutualistic associations and biotechnological potential of macrofungi.

Recenzii

"I found the mix of chapters came together to form a fascinating snap-shot of where we are in utilising macrofungi and insights into aspects that I knew little of before. The general presentation and quality of editing and production is excellent. It deserves to find its way into mycological and biotechnological libraries around the world, where it can be available for browsing and will increase awareness of the potential and value of the macrofungal resource."
David L. Hawksworth, Hawksworth IMA Fungus 2019

Descriere

This book discusses techniques for inventorying and monitoring macrofungi, as well as the necessary steps needed for preservation and conservation. It explores how macrofungi, whether wild or cultivated, can be utilized as a nutritional source, as well as used for lifestyle diseases, especially cancer and cardiovascular ailments.
