Advancing Frontiers in Mycology & Mycotechnology: Basic and Applied Aspects of Fungi
Editat de Tulasi Satyanarayana, Sunil Kumar Deshmukh, Mukund V. Deshpandeen Limba Engleză Paperback – noi 2020
The book provides an introduction to the basics of fungi, discussing various types ranging from edible mushrooms to Neurospora – a model system for genetics and epigenetics. After addressing the classification and biodiversity of fungi, and fungi in different ecological niches, it describes the latest applications of fungi, their role in sustainable environments and in alleviating stress in plants, as well as their role in causing plant and animal diseases. Further chapters explore the advances in fungal interactions research and their implications for various systems, and discuss plant-pathogen interactions. The book also features a section on bioprospecting, and is an extremely interesting and informative read for anybody involved in the field of mycology, microbiology and biotechnology teaching and research.
