This book presents research on the challenges and potential of
fungal contribution in agriculture for food substantiality.
Research on fungi plays an essential role in the improvement of
biotechnologies which lead global sustainable food production. Use
of fungal processes and products can bring increased sustainability
through more efficient use of natural resources. Fungal inoculum,
introduced into soil together with seed, can promote more robust
plant growth through increasing plant uptake of nutrients and
water, with plant robustness being of central importance in
maintaining crop yields. Fungi are one of nature's best candidates
for the discovery of food ingredients, new drugs and
antimicrobials. As fungi and their related biomolecules are
increasingly characterized, they have turned into a subject of
expanding significance. The metabolic versatility makes fungi
interesting objects for a range of economically important food
biotechnology and related applications. The potential of fungi for
a more sustainable world must be realized to address global
challenges of climate change, higher demands on natural resources.
