The main theme of this book is how reproduction in fungi is controlled by genetic and environmental factors. The genetics of fungi is now thought to be at something of a crossroads - the methods of classical genetics are giving way to those of recombinant DNA technology. "Reproduction in Fungi" takes stock of what has been learned to date and points the way forward to future research. This book provides a fairly detailed study of what has been learnt by experimental work on a relatively small number of fungi - Aspergillus, Neurosora, and Podospora, Saccharomyces cereviasiae, Achlya and Phytophthora, Mucor and Phycomyces, Coprinus and Schizophyllum. It will appeal to senior undergraduates and research workers in mycology and genetics. This book should be of interest to researchers in plant biology, applied biology and agriculture worldwide.
