Reviews for Clavicipitalean Fungi: Evolutionary Biology, Chemistry, Biocontrol And Cultural Impacts

"""[T]here is a fascinating study of evolution in the Epichlok endophytes of grassesa valuable treatment of secondary metabolitesthere is no doubt that this will be the key reference to all aspects of the clavicipitalean fungi for many years to come."" -Mycological Research, Feb. 2004 ""[T]his will now be the first place to go to identify these fungi!there is no doubt that this much needed reference work on these fungi will be valued by all struggling to identify them as well as utilize or understand their biologies."" p-Mycotaxon, January-March 2004, Vol. 89"
