Molecular Biology in Filamentous Fungi

Molecular Biology of Filamentous Fungi Edited by U. Stahl and P. Tudzynski The book gives an overview of the state-of-the-art in major fields of research in modern fungal genetics. Focus has been placed on the two most fascinating aspects of this rapidly expanding field: - Molecular Biology of Pathogenetic Fungi Molecular techniques available for these fungi have yielded new and intriguing approaches to studying host/pathogen interactions. An example of worldwide relevance: the potential implementation of fungi as insecticides. - Gene Expression in Fungal SystemsThis includes the fundamental aspects of regulation and differentiation as well as the applied aspects of using these fungi in biotechnological processes. An example of industrial relevance: the production of antibiotics using fungi. Scientists and advanced students in the areas of fungal genetics, phytopathology and biotechnology will find this book to be an indispensable summary of recent advances and an invaluable stimulus for their research.U. Stahl is the author of 'Molecular Biology in Filamentous Fungi', published 1992 under ISBN 9783527284818 and ISBN 3527284818.
