first chapter, the author considers the "purpose" served by the second pyridine nucleotide coenzyme, TPN, to which he adds the thought that TPN arose in evolution to protect reducing power from the DPN-specific terminal oxidase systems that developed. Thus, the phosphogluconate and Emden-Myerhof pathways are looked at in terms of the pyridine nucleotidecoenzyme which each reduces rather than as...

Genome-enabled mycology is a rapidly expanding field that is characterized by the pervasive use of genome-scale data and associated computational tools in all aspects of fungal biology. Genome-enabled mycology is integrative and often requires teams of researchers with diverse skills in organismal mycology, bioinformatics and molecular biology. This issue of Mycologia presents the first complet...

In the new bioeconomy, fungi play a very important role in addressing major global challenges, being instrumental for improved resource efficiency, making renewable substitutes for products from fossil resources, upgrading waste streams to valuable food and feed ingredients, counteracting life-style diseases and antibiotic resistance through strengthening the gut biota, making crop plants more ...

This work is intended as a practical guide to the examination and cultivation of micro-organisms, especially of those that are supposed to be connected with disease. So far, the authors have fully and satisfactorily succeeded in their purpose. There is no work in the English language which, in so small a space, gives such accurate and trustworthy accounts of the best methods of working at this ...
