![Figure][1] Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi.CREDIT: JAN JANSA Although fungi are a greater threat to crops and forests than ever before (“Attack of the clones,” K. Kupferschmidt, News Focus, 10 August, p. [636][2]), we should not expel them completely.

BioScience, 1987
In Italy, 15 years after blight devastated the country's chestnut groves, cytoplasmic factors began to undermine the virulence of the blight-causing fungus. Today dense chestnut stands are once again serving as a valuable timber source. In France, mycologists are successfully using fungal strains carrying these same factors to cure blight in their ...

Biosystems, 1975
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the ultrastructure of vegetative nuclear division, that is, mitosis in fungi and closely related groups. Mitotic divisions occurring in the vegetative phase of the fungi are essentially the same as in higher organisms, although the details are frequently obscured by the small size of the nuclei.

Mycoses, 2004
SummaryDematiaceous fungi are responsible for a wide variety of infectious syndromes. They are often found in soil and generally distributed worldwide. This suggests that most if not all individuals are exposed to them, presumably from inhalation or trauma. In recent years, these fungi have been increasingly recognised as important pathogens.

Current Opinion in Immunology, 2006
Innate and adaptive immune responses target pathogenic fungi and provide defense against fungal infections. Recent studies demonstrate that specific host receptors recognize ligands that are unique to fungi and activate signaling cascades that lead to phagocytosis of fungi, generation of pro-inflammatory mediators, formation of reactive oxygen species,

Entomopathogenic Fungi: Fungi Imperfecti
1998The phylum Deuteromycota (Fungi Imperfecti, Table 8-1) includes a group of miscellaneous fungi that are classified according to characteristics of an asexual (anamorphic) rather than a sexual (teleomorphic) state. As mentioned previously (Table 8-3), some Deuteromycetes are anamorphs of Ascomycetes or Basidiomycetes, all of which are classed as the ...

Publisher Summary Fungi decompose dead plants and animals and recycle essential minerals back into the soil for reuse by other growing plants. Fungi are important industrially in the production of antibiotics, cheeses, wines, and a large number of other products. Fungi are also the most commonly encountered group of plant pathogens.

There is evidence supporting a concept of polyploid evolution in a number of groups of fungi. These typically have dominant diploid phases in their life-histories. There are a number of reports of suspected polyploidy in other fungi, but these should be considered speculative at this time.
