This book was released on 2021-09-15 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This the first color-illustrated reference to polypores and similar fungi specific to the eastern and central regions of the United States and Canada. Welcoming and comprehensive, it accurately presents the currently available information about polypores, emphasizes identification based primarily on macroscopic field characters, and includes observational data drawn from the authors’ extensive experience. It includes new species and genera; addresses changing nomenclature; and provides details about polypores’ biology, morphology, composition, role as parasites, interactions with various arthropods, and purported medicinal applications. The book also highlights how changes in geology, soil structure, and plant species due to factors such as continental drift and climate change have affected the evolution of polypores. Featuring more than 240 species of polypores, extensive and easy-to-use dichotomous keys, and more than 300 color illustrations and multiple maps and line drawings, Polypores and Similar Fungi of Eastern and Central North America is a must-have for amateur and professional mycologists, forest service personnel, mycophagists, and anyone interested in learning more about this remarkable group of fungi.
Download or read book 21st Century Guidebook to Fungi written by David Moore and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-05-08 with total page 611 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mysterious world of fungi is once again unearthed in this expansive second edition. This textbook provides readers with an all-embracing view of the kingdom fungi, ranging in scope from ecology and evolution, diversity and taxonomy, cell biology and biochemistry, to genetics and genomics, biotechnology and bioinformatics. Adopting a unique systems biology approach - and using explanatory figures and colour illustrations - the authors emphasise the diverse interactions between fungi and other organisms. They outline how recent advances in molecular techniques and computational biology have fundamentally changed our understanding of fungal biology, and have updated chapters and references throughout the book in light of this. This is a fascinating and accessible guide, which will appeal to a broad readership - from aspiring mycologists at undergraduate and graduate level to those studying related disciplines. Online resources are hosted on a complementary website.
Download or read book Polypores of Kerala written by K. M. Leelavathy and published by Daya Books. This book was released on 2000 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the result of a preliminary study of the polypore flora of Kerala mainly for a period of five years from 1983-1987. Must effort in the form of field work and laboratory work have gone into it along with exhaustive coverage of literature. Though this is primarily a study of the polypore flora of Kerala State, a good number of species recorded from here are new reports for India. Therefore, besides being a regional flora, the present work adds considerably to our knowledge of the polypores of India. As reports of polyporaceous fungi from Kerala up to this time was only six species, this presentation may serve as a base on which future workers of Kerala on this interesting group of fungi can build up. The present work contains descriptions and illustrations of 80 species of polypores belonging to 32 genera of three families viz, Ganodermataceae, Hymenochaetaceae and Polyporaceae. The book also provides a brief summary of the history and classification of the three families and a review of literature on the subject including contributions of Indian workers. Keys are provided for families, genera and species. Full synonymy and author citation are quoted for each species. Detailed descriptions, drawings and collection data are also provided. With a few exceptions descriptions are based on fresh collections made by the authors from Kerala. Part of all collections are deposited in the Herbarium of the Forest Research Institute, Dehra Dun (Herb FRI) and at the Herbarium Cryptogamme Indae Orientalis (Herb HCIO) of the Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi. Contents Chapter 1: Introduction; Materials and methods, Physiography and vegetation of the region, Review of literature, Technical terms; Chapter 2: Systematic Account; Key to families, Introduction to families, Ganodermataceae, Hymenochaetaceae, Polyporaceae.
Download or read book Wood rotting non gilled Agaricomycetes of Himalayas written by I.B. Prasher and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-06-09 with total page 665 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume by the author is based on the outcome of extensive explorations in the Himalayas for more than a decade. It incorporates the original research findings along with that based on literature survey. It is intended to provide a comprehensive account of an important group of fungi which has a direct bearing on wood industry and forest ecosystem besides commercial application in bioremediation and pollution control. It is the first step in providing the mycologists with consolidated, systematically up-to-date and illustrative monograph of wood-rotting fungi of Himalayas. Every year the students of the post graduate colleges and universities particularly Indian sub-continent go in for fungal forays to collect fungi which forms part of their course curriculum. This book will serve as a field manual for identification. The book has more than 240 color photographs and 123 plates of camera lucida drawings covering all the fungi which have been reported till-to-date from the study area.

Download or read book Ascomycete Fungi of North America written by Michael Beug and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2014-03-01 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Approximately 75 percent of all fungi that have been described to date belong to the phylum Ascomycota. They are usually referred to as Ascomycetes and are commonly found and collected by mushroom enthusiasts. Ascomycetes exhibit a remarkable range of biodiversity, are beautiful and visually complex, and some, including morels and truffles, are highly prized for their edibility. Many play significant roles in plant ecology because of the mycorrhizal associations that they form. Thus it is remarkable that no book dedicated to describing and illustrating the North American Ascomycetes has been published in over sixty years. Filling the gap between technical publications and the limited representation of Ascomycetes in general mushroom field guides, Ascomycete Fungi of North America is a scientifically accurate work dedicated to this significant group of fungi. Because it is impossible to describe and illustrate the tens of thousands of species that occur in North America, the authors focus on species found in the continental United States and Canada that are large enough to be readily noticeable to mycologists, naturalists, photographers, and mushroom hunters. They provide 843 color photographs and more than 600 described species, many of which are illustrated in color for the first time. While emphasizing macroscopic field identification characteristics for a general audience, the authors also include microscopic and other advanced information useful to students and professional mycologists. In addition, a color key to the species described in this book offers a visual guide to assist in the identification process.
