Publisher's Synopsis
Fungal genetics continues to increase in importance as the applications of fungi to biotechnology multiply. Until now, however, no book has attempted to collate all the methods and practical hints into an easy-to-use manual.;This book aims to present working protocols and strategies for all aspects of practical genetics with fungi in a way which can be readily interpreted by the reader at the bench. Each section explains the theoretical background and rationale of a method or genetic principle and should be of use to researchers, teachers and students wishing to carry out work in this area.
