Fungal Protoplasts
Product Description
Until now, information on fungal protoplasts has been scattered throughout various sources. With authoritative reviews of protoplast isolation and applications in fungal biology research, Fungal Protoplasts: Applications in Biochemistry and Genetics is the first volume devoted to a major area in experimental mycology-fungal protoplasts.
Written by 18 pioneering experts, this unmatched, illustrated reference presents well-established knowledge of protoplast re… More >>Fungal Protoplasts
The Fungal Community
Product Description
Entirely rewritten and updated throughout, this Second Edition maintains and enhances the features of the first edition. “The Fungal Community, Second Edition” continues to cover the entire spectrum of fungal ecology, from studies of individual fungal populations to the functional role of fungi at the ecosystem level, and to present mycological ecology as a rational, organized body of knowledge.Acting as a bridge between mycological data and ecological theory, “The … More >>The Fungal Community
Fungal Cell Wall: Structure, Synthesis, and Assembly
Product Description
Fungal Cell Wall presents a comprehensive examination of the structure, synthesis, and growth of the fungal cell wall and explores the reasons for the cell wall’s importance to the survival of fungi. Topics covered include the composition and structure of the fungal cell wall and how they are affected by endogenous and external factors; the structure and synthesis of glucans, chitin, and glycoproteins; and the mechanisms of secretion, organization, and final assembl… More >>Fungal Cell Wall: Structure, Synthesis, and Assembly
Fungal Cell Wall and Immune Response
Product Description
Recent findings on the role of the cell wall of pathogenetic fungi in the pathogenic processes of both vertebrates and invertebrates are presented. The fungal cell wall not only gives shape to the fungus, but it is a dynamic structure allowing fungal growth and survival of fungi in both friendly and adverse environments. It acts as a living sieve controlling the entry of nutrients and the secretion of metabolic products. In terms of fungal pathogenesis, the fungal w… More >>Fungal Cell Wall and Immune Response

Evolutionary Biology of Bacterial and Fungal Pathogens
Product Description
This volume was inspired by the 2004 Fundacion Lilly conference that focused on the series of successive events characterizing the emergence, development, spread, variation, or disappearance of the interactions between microbes and humans resulting in a reduced fitness for the human host….
