Full Description
Most fungi are microscopic; they cause diseases, degrade organic matter, are the sources of antibiotics, and are involved in the making of bread, cheese, wine, and beer. There are lots of sources of information for macrofungi, but not so much for microfungi. This guide will provide succinct taxonomic and phylogenetic information on microfungi. Examples of microfungi in this book will include black yeasts, endophytes, indoor moulds, insect pathogens, mychrhizal fungi, thermophiles, plant pathogens, blights, ergot, mildews and smuts. This book will help inform anyone using DNA barcoding to identify microfungi and help merge molecular laboratory work with field biology.Key selling features:Offers a succinct summary of the taxonomy, identification and phylogenetic relationships among the microfungi Includes coverage of a broad cross section of microfungi such as black yeasts, endophytes, indoor moulds, insect pathogens, mychrhizal fungi, thermophiles, plant pathogens, blights, ergot, mildews and smuts Integrates molecular laboratory work with field biology Provides non-mycologists with accurate information
