Advancing Frontiers in Mycology & Mycotechnology Basic and Applied Aspects of Fungi / edited by Tulasi Satyanarayana, Sunil Kumar Deshmukh, Mukund V. Deshpande.

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 late...
