Laboratory Protocols in Fungal Biology. Current Methods in Fungal Biology. 2012. (Fungal Biology Series). illus. XXV, 604 p. gr8vo. Hardcover.
Fungi and their biomolecules are explored in a variety of scientific endeavors. This manual will act as a source of laboratory protocols for standard and applied research applications. The methods outlined in this book will cater to the needs of researchers in the fields of biochemistry, biotechnology, microbiology and beyond. As this discipline comes to the forefront of research in these sectors, the requirement for a consolidation of available research approaches is highlighted. Therefore, this laboratory manual will strive to consolidate the most widely used mycological methods available in the fields of biochemistry, biotechnology and microbiology. The methods outlined will give clear and concise direction to the reader and will cover both standard protocols and more applied mycological methods. Protocols are designed to facilitate early stage and experienced researchers, who can also easily carry out the experiments as outlined. Each protocol in the manual would describe the background and usefulness of the experiment in question followed by a practical outline. All the protocols covered in the manual will be derived from current peer reviewed literature as accepted bythe international scientific community.
