Download or read book Fungal Infection 2E written by Malcolm D. Richardson and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 1997-08-11 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fungal Infection: Diagnosis and Management summarises the clinical manifestations, diagnosis and management of fungal infection. Infections are dealt with according to the affected system and clinical presentation rather than the individual fungal infection. As a result, this approach results in a problem-orientated text designed to help clinicians make the best use of the often time-consuming laboratory investigations. In the three years since the first edition was written, significant developments have occurred in the diagnosis and management of superficial and deep-seated fungal infections, as well as new approaches to the diagnosis and prevention of infection, and introduction of new drugs. Additionally, in light of recent clinical trials, the role of several older drugs has changed. Given the increasing importance of opportunistic infections among immunosuppressed patients, this book will be particularly helpful in hospitals lacking specialist mycological services and for those in general practice. In particular, Fungal Infection will appeal to microbiologists, dermatologists, venerealologists, medical students and junior doctors.
Download or read book Identification of Pathogenic Fungi written by Colin K. Campbell and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-01-25 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the first edition of Identification of Pathogenic Fungi, there has been incredible progress in the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of fungal diseases: new methods of diagnosis have been introduced, and new antifungal agents have been licensed for use. However, these developments have been offset by the emergence of resistance to several classes of drugs, and an increase in infections caused by fungi with innate resistance to one or more classes. Identification of Pathogenic Fungi, Second Edition, assists in the identification of over 100 of the most significant organisms of medical importance. Each chapter is arranged so that the descriptions for similar organisms may be found on adjacent pages. Differential diagnosis details are given for each organism on the basis of both colonial appearance and microscopic characteristics for the organisms described. In this fully updated second edition, a new chapter on the identification of fungi in histopathological sections and smears has been added, while colour illustrations of cultures and microscopic structures have been included, and high quality, four colour digital images are incorporated throughout.

Download or read book Fungal Diseases And Their Management In Horticultural Crops written by P.P. Reddy and published by Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2010-06-01 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Horticulture in India is fast emerging as a major commercial venture, because of higher remuneration per unit area and the realization that consumption of fruits and vegetables is essential for health and nutrition. In the last one decade, export potential of horticultural crops has also significantly increased attracting even multinationals into floriculture, processing and value added products. Productivity of horticultural crops in India is relatively low as compared to other countries. Of the several factors responsible for lower productivity of horticultural crops, fungal diseases are considered as important limiting factors. Diseases of horticultural crops continue to cause losses of about 10% of the crop yields worth more than Rs. 15,000 crores annually. More than 9,600 MT of technical grade fungicides are used annually to manage the diseases in India. The information on fungal diseases of horticultural crops is very much scattered. There is no such book at present which comprehensively and exclusively deals with the above aspects on horticultural crops. The present book deals with geographical distribution, symptoms, host range, life cycle, spread, survival and management of fungal diseases in horticultural crops in detail using regulatory, physical, cultural, chemical, biological, host plant resistance and integrated methods. The book is extensively illustrated with excellent quality photographs enhancing the quality of publication. This book is a practical guide to practicing farmers, useful reference to policy makers, research and extension workers and teachers for teaching undergraduate and post-graduate students.
