Описание: This book is concerned with the most devastating fungal diseases in history. These are the plagues of trees and crop plants, caused by invisible spores that have reshaped entire landscapes and decimated human populations. The Triumph of the Fungi focuses on the fascinating biology of the well- and lesser-known diseases, and also tells the stories of the scientists involved in their study, and of the people directly impacted by the loss of forest trees like the chestnut, and cash crops such as coffee and cacao. In a surprisingly brief time, human knowledge of the fungi that infect plants has evolved from Biblical superstition, to the recognition of the true nature of plant disease, and, more recently, to a sense of awe for the sophistication of these microbes. The crucial issue of human culpability in these fungal epidemics is addressed in the books closing chapter.

Описание: Early approaches towards an understanding of transport at the tonoplast of higher plant cells were based on the kinetics of radio-isotope uptake (Torii and Laties. 1966) and exchange (Pitman, 1963). A variety of other methods became available in due course (reviewed by Clarkson and Luttge, 1984). But even with the most modern developments, the function of. the tonoplast remained in the dark. On the basis of Hitchell's chemiosmotic $heory (Hitchell, 1967), mechanisms of membrane-bound H -translocating ATPases and H -solute co-transport were conceived for the plasmalemma of fungi and plants, based on experiments with intact tissues, cells or protoplasts . With the onset of the era of membrane fractionation it seemed obvious that plasmalemma and tonoplast vlould cause the greatest problems due to the apparent lack of intrinsic markers. Again the situation for the plasmalemma appeared to be favorable; the periodic-phosphotungstic-acid reagent was considered as a specific stain. There was also the opportunity to bind externally applied markers to the plasmalemma prior to cell homogenization. Vacuoles were initially considered as compartments for intracellular excretion or at best as storage compart- ments, but were later understood to have important dynamic functions in cell physiology as a lytic compart- ment comparable to animal lysosomes (Hatile, 1966). The dynamics of molecular functions of the tonoplast itself remained obscure, however, with one exception. Hotivated by the search for a better understanding of latex production by the rubber tree Hevea brasiliensis Hull. -Arg.

Описание: Edible ectomycorrhizal mushrooms (EEMMs) comprise more than 1000 species and are an important food and forest resource. In this volume of Soil Biology, internationally recognized scientists offer their most recent research findings on these beguiling fungi. Topics covered include: complex ecological interactions between plants, EEMMs, and soil organisms; comparative genomics, high-throughput sequencing and modern research tools; genetic selection of fungal strains and techniques for inoculating plants; economic and social considerations surrounding wild collected EEMMs; and practical information concerning soil management and EEMM cultivation. The book will be a useful guide for anyone interested in soil ecology, forestry, or the genetics and cultivation of EEMMs, and provides an extensive knowledge base and inspirations for future studies on these ecologically and economically important fungi.
