Atlas of Soil Ascomycetes
Author: J. Guarro
Publisher:
ISBN: 9789070351885
Category : Ascomycetes
Languages : en
Pages : 486
Book Description
"This compendium includes almost all presently known species of ascomycetes that have been reported in soil and which sporulate in culture. They constitute a very broad spectrum of genera belonging to very diverse orders, but mainly to the Onygenales, Sordariales, Eurotiales, Thelebolales, Pezizales, Melanosporales, Pleosporales, Xylariales, Coniochaetales and Microascales. The goal of this book is to provide sufficient data for users to recognise and identify these species. It includes the description of 146 genera and 698 species. For each genus a dichotomous key to facilitate species identification is provided and for each genus and species the salient morphological features are described. These descriptions are accompanied by line drawings illustrating the most representative structures. Light micrographs, supplemented by scanning electron micrographs and Nomarski interference contrast micrographs of most of the species treated in the book are also included. In addition, numerous species not found in soil but related to those included in this book are referenced or described. This book will be of value not only to soil microbiologists and plant pathologists concerned with the soilborne fungi and diseases, but also to anyone interested in identifying fungi in general, because many of the genera included here are not confined to soil. Since most of the fungi of biotechnological or clinical interest (dermatophytes, dimorphic fungi and opportunists) are soil-borne ascomycetes, the content of this book is of interest for a wide range of scientists."--pub. desc.

The Hidden Kingdom of Fungi
Author: Keith Seifert
Publisher: Univ. of Queensland Press
ISBN: 0702267333
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
Fungi are essential to all life on Earth and yet fungal diseases and toxins lead to over one million deaths each year. How can we strike a better balance with our microbial cousins? These remarkable microbes enrich our lives: from releasing the carbon in plants, to producing life-changing medicine, to adding umami flavour and B vitamins to our food. But not all fungi are good for us. This compelling book from esteemed mycologist Keith Seifert ventures into our homes, bodies, farms, and forests to profile the fungi that inhabit our environments. Drawing from the latest research, he explains where fungi came from and how yeasts, lichens, and moulds have evolved and adapted over millions of years. The Hidden Kingdom of Fungi urges us to better understand our relationship with fungi, while revealing their world in all its beautiful complexity.

Introduction to Mycology
Author: Penelope Goodman
Publisher: States Academic Press
ISBN: 9781639893072
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
Fungus is any member of eukaryotic organisms which include yeasts, mushrooms, molds, mildews, rusts and smuts. Mycology is the field of biology which focuses on the study of fungi. It includes fungi's biochemical and genetic properties, taxonomy, and diseases. Mycotoxicology focuses on the analysis and study of fungal toxins called mycotoxins. Ethnomycology is an interdisciplinary field concerned with the study of sociological impact and historical uses of fungi. Fungi are used by forensic experts in criminal examinations. This is known as forensic mycology. Medicinal mycology is concerned with study of pathogenic fungi, fungal diseases along with their ecology and epidemiology. Basidiobolomycosis, valley fever, cryptococcosis and fungal meningitis are some of the common fungal diseases. This book is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts in the field of mycology. It presents this complex subject in the most comprehensible and easy to understand language. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by this textbook.

The Book of Fungi
Author: Peter Roberts
Publisher: Ivy Press
ISBN: 1782401369
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 1988
Book Description
The fifth order of the natural kingdom is made up of an estimated 1.5 million species of fungi, found in every habitat type worldwide. The Book of Fungi takes 600 of the most remarkable fleshy fungi from around the world and reproduces each at its actual size, in full colour, and accompanied by a scientific explanation of its distribution, habitat, association, abundance, growth form, spore colour and edibility. Location maps give at-a-glance indications of each species known global distribution, and specially commissioned engravings show different fruitbody forms and provide the vital statistics of height and diameter. Theres a place, too, for readers to discover the more bizarre habits of fungi from the predator that hunts its prey with lassos to the one that entices sows by releasing the pheromones of a wild boar. Mushrooms, morels, puffballs, toadstools, truffles, chanterelles fungi from habitats spanning the poles and the tropics, from the highest mountains to our own gardens are all on display in this definitive work.
