Fungal Biology is the fully updated new edition of this undergraduate text, covering all major areas of fungal biology and providing insights into many topical areas such as:
- fungal ultrastructure and the mechanisms of fungal growth
- important fungal metabolites, including antibiotics, mycotoxins and immunosuppressants
- the molecular techniques used to study fungal populations
- fungal genetics and fungal genomes
- the significance of fungi in mutualistic and pathogenic interactions
- the major methods for controlling fungi, including the fungi that cause diseases of humans and the antifungal drugs used to treat these infections
This edition also focuses on the interactions of fungi that form the basis for developing biological control agents, with several commercial examples of the control of insect pests and plant diseases.
The text is illustrated with many diagrams and tables that summarize key points, and with many high-quality images (available in color to download free via www.blackwellpublishing.com/deacon and for instructors on CD-ROM).
The emphasis throughout is on the functional biology of fungi, with several examples from recent research. The book also includes a clear illustrative account of the features and significance of the main fungal groups.
