This volume includes treatments of systematics and related topics
for both fungi and fungus-like organisms in four eukaryotic
supergroups, as well as specialized chapters on nomenclature,
techniques and evolution. These organisms are of great interest to
mycologists, plant pathologists and others, including those
interested in the animal parasitic Microsporidia. Our knowledge of
the systematics and evolution of fungi has made great strides since
the first edition of this volume, largely driven by molecular
phylogenetic analyses. Consensus among mycologists has led to a
stable systematic treatment that has since become widely adopted
and is incorporated into this second edition, along with a great
deal of new information on evolution and ecology. The systematic
chapters cover occurrence, distribution, economic importance,
morphology and ultrastructure, development of taxonomic theory,
classification, and maintenance and culture. Other chapters deal
with nomenclatural changes necessitated by revisions of the
International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi and plants,
including the elimination of separate names for asexual states, as
well as methods for preservation of cultures and specimens,
character evolution and methods for ultrastructural study, the
fungal fossil record, and the impact of whole genomes on fungal
studies.
