Introductory Mycology, 4th Ed

This book is updated and revised to accurately reflect what is currently known about the biology of fungi. The primary thrust of the book is morphology-taxonomy, but also includes interesting and important activities of fungi. The new edition has added more fungal biology (physiology, genetics, ecology), and also provides more information on the evolutionary significance of fungi.
