It analyzes how the specific interactions with the hosts and the influence of the environment may have shaped genome evolution. The relevance of fungal genetic research and biotechnological applications is shown for areas such as plant pathogenesis, biomass degradation, litter decomposition, nitrogen assimilation, antibiotic production, mycoparasitism, energy, ecology, and also for soil fungi turning to human pathogens. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn addition to the model organisms \u003ci\u003eNeurospora\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eAspergillus\u003c\/i\u003e, the following species are covered providing a view of pathogens and mutualists: \u003ci\u003eTrichoderma\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eFusarium oxysporum\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eCochliobolus heterostrophus\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003ePenicillium chrysogenum\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eRhizopus oryzae\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003ePodospora\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eanserina\u003c\/i\u003e, and species belonging to Agaricomycetes, Archaeorhizomycetes and Magnaporthaceae. Ecology and potential applications have guided the choice of fungal genes to be studied and it will be fascinating to follow the trends of future sequencing projects.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2013-09-12\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783642393389\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-642-39339-6\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 388\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Berlin Heidelberg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45382455558284,"sku":"9783642393389","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783642393389.jpg?v=1779508143","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783642393389","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
