Special Issue on Basidiomycetes

 

Basidiomycetes or club fungi as they are more commonly called are important decomposers of wood and other plant material.  Of all fungi there is none better at decomposing the complex polymer lignin, an abundant component of wood, than saprobic basidiomycetes. Some form mycorrhizae with plants while other groups such as rusts and smuts include particularly destructive plant parasites that attack crops like wheat. Furthermore, certain species form symbiotic associations with insects like leaf-cutter ants and termites.

 

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original researches and review articles on exploring basidiomycetes. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

 

  • Diversity of basidiomycetes
  • General characters
  • Basidiospores
  • Activities and lifestyle
  • Ecosystem relationship
  • Genetics and morphogenesis
  • Isolation and chemistry
  • Basidiomycetes extract

 

Authors should read over the journal’s Authors’ Guidelines carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal at Paper Submission System.

 

Please kindly specify the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title. The research field “Special Issue – Basidiomycetes” should be selected during your submission.
