Stress in Yeasts and Filamentous Fungi, Volume 27 (British Mycological Society Symposia Series) (British Mycological Society Symposia Series)

Yeasts and filamentous fungi need to cope with stress, whether growing in the laboratory or in the natural environment, whether victims or offenders in interactions with other organisms. These considerations are discussed in this volume that coveres stress in the broad sense, within the context of mycology. * Includes discussions of the stresses associated with organism-organism interactions and stress under controlled conditions* Anthropogenic stress towards fungi in the environment and the impacts that such stressors may have on different organisms and communities in the wild are explained* Encompasses a breadth of information from the bigger picture of stress effects on fungi in their natural habitats, to the recent advances in underlying molecular-level understanding Content: Chapter 1 Interactions between Agaricus bisporus and the pathogen Verticillium fungicola Original Research Article Pages 1-17 Peter Mills, John Thomas, Martin Sergeant, Ana Costa, Patrick Collopy, Andy Bailey, Gary Foster, Mike Challen Chapter 2 Environmental fluxes and fungal interactions: Maintaining a competitive edge Original Research Article Pages 19-35 Naresh Magan, David Aldred Chapter 3 Intracellular mycoparasites in action: Interactions between powdery mildew fungi and Ampelomyces Original Research Article Pages 37-52 Levente Kiss Chapter 4 The population dynamical consequences of density dependence in fungal plant pathogens Original Research Article Pages 53-65 Michael W.
