Fungal Cell Wall: Structure, Synthesis, and Assembly, Second
Edition is a compendium of information on the chemical structure,
synthesis, and organization of the cell wall of fungi. Reviewing
the past 20 years of research in the field, it discusses
experimental evidence that demonstrates the role of the cell wall
in the growth, development, morphogenesis, and evolution of fungi.
Synthesizes 20 Years of Important Research on Fungal Cell Walls
More than just a revision, this second edition offers a fresh
perspective on what is currently known about the fungal cell wall.
It covers recent developments, conflicting theories, and important
aspects that are largely forgotten-including critical analysis of
the prevalent idea that cell walls from all fungal species have the
same basic structure, organization, and behavior as the most
popular models of study. Chapters are self-contained and can be
read independently, allowing readers to delve into specific topics.
The book begins by examining the chemical composition and structure
of the fungal cell wall, an area almost closed to modern research.
It then describes the structure and synthesis of the most important
components of the cell wall and analyzes the mechanisms of cell
wall expansion and growth. Throughout, the book identifies the
basic concepts that have led to modern ideas about cell walls. The
Essential Guide to the Fungal Cell Wall A critical review of fungal
cell wall research, this book helps readers understand the role of
fungi in nature-both positive and negative-from their symbiotic
associations and biotechnological applications to their
pathogenicity to plants, animals, and humans.
