Basic Mycology and Mycotechnology deals with the study of fungi and production of their valuable products like different metabolites, food and pharmaceuticals by using fungal system as machinery in consideration with the principles of fungal biology, bioconversion and environmental technology. The book has been designed to give a basic idea on Mycology & applied biotechnological aspects of fungi. This book is aimed to cater to students of undergraduate & post-graduate, students appearing for various competitive examinations and researchers. The Book highlights on the basics about growth behaviors and diversity of fungi, detailed cell structures of different groups of fungi, wood decaying fungi, fungal genomics, fungal phylogeny as well as evolutionary aspects of fungi under “Basic Mycology” section. Under “Mycotechnology” section, authors have tried to give an input about fungal enzyme technology, role of fungal metabolites; recent findings about fungal recombinant technology in the field of industry have been discussed. This book also covers the research information about how “Plant-Mycorrhiza” and “Plant- Plant Growth Promoting Fungi (PGPF)” interactions can be used for sustainable agriculture. Authors have discussed about the role of “Mycoremediation” and how it can be used as an alternative eco-friendly approach for sustainable management of environment.
