Beschreibung
This fully revised 3rd edition provides a comprehensive overview of the biology of fungi associated with plants. Since the publication of the 2nd Edition in 2009, tremendous new knowledge has been gained in the field of fungal-plant interactions, which is reflected in the contributions of this book.
World-leading scientists in the field provide authoritative insights into fungal-plant interactions covering the following main topics:
- Mutualistic and pathogenic fungal-plant interactions in natural and agricultural ecosystems
- Sensing and signalling in fungus-plant interactions
- Regulation of fungal gene expression and development
- Fungal genomes and evolution
- Global pandemics caused by fungal pathogens and their implications for food security

“This edition has a mixture of chapters, some of which are broad in scope and so will be of interest to a wide range of mycologists, while others focus on particular cases. With regard to plant pathogens, there is a fascinating account of the role of extracellular RNAs in overcoming the species boundary between a fungus and plant host … . Other contributions … in our understanding of aspects of particular diseases, especially ones facilitated by genomic and genetic studies.” (IMA Fungus, February 5, 2024)
