Mycology, fungi (non-medical)

Series: British Mycological Society Symposia

The disappearing rain forest and damage to other tropical and subtropical habitats has recently provoked considerable public awareness and response from governmental and scientific bodies. Tropical fungi have received little attention to date and this volume aims to correct this deficit. Based on a meeting of the British Mycological Society, the book addresses the challenge which the exceptional diversity of tropical fungi present to taxonomists, biochemists, molecular biologists, ecologists and pathologists alike. The significance of the many tropical species and ectomycorrhizal associations in nutrient cycling in rainforests, desert ecosystems and aquatic habitats is considered, together with an evaluation of the potential of such fungi in the production of commercially useful, novel metabolites.

Reviews for Aspects of Tropical Mycology

"""...an excellent beginning, with so little information on tropical fungi actually available...an excellent choice for those interested in tropical ecology or the distribution of fungi in tropical areas."" J. Dawson, Choice ""...highly useful and worthwhile volume...no other single source provides such an accurate, unbiased perspective on the fungi that are important in tropical areas."" Steven L. Miller, Quarterly Review of Biology"
