Provides an opportunity to describe the wild edible and medicinal
mushrooms from this scientifically significant region. Represents a
wider variety of mushrooms than previously published in other
books. Presents more content related to traditional uses,
phytochemistry, pharmacology, distribution, processing, toxicology,
conservation and future prospective of individual mushrooms. The
plants and mushrooms of the region are valuable resources not only
to local populations but to those living outside the region.
Scientists are monitoring the rich Himalayan plant resources and
the consequences of climate change on this precarious ecosystem.
Fungal natural products are among some of the earliest described
sources of bioactive compounds. Basidiomycetes have been a prolific
source of compounds, particularly as a source of antibiotics and
antifungals. Despite advances in target-based and synthetic methods
for drug discovery, natural products continue to be an important
source of novel compounds. This book is a comprehensive guide to
many important fungal species with a focus on their phytochemistry,
potential sources of bioactive compounds, known chemistry and
toxicology. This book is an ideal companion to researchers and
postgraduates in phytochemistry and natural product
pharmacology, and mycologists.
