In addition to their role as pathogens of economically important plants and humans, their biotechnological applications emphasizing their role as saprotrophs and in bioremediation of polluted soils, their use as biocontrol agents and inoculants in agriculture and their practical applications from the preparation of foods and beverages to drug production are clearly described. Modern topics such as fungal genetics and alternative genetic systems in fungi are also covered. Each chapter ends with review questions and selected references
