NEW! Mycorrhizas: Anatomy and Cell Biology
By R. Larry Peterson, Hugues B. Massicotte and Lewis H. Melville. Symbiotic relations between roots and fungi (mycorrhizas) are the most prevalent symbiotic systems on earth. Mycorrhizal associations can be found in all ecosystems and in important forest and crop species. This book provides a summary of all the mycorrhizal categories from a morphological and anatomical perspective. Numerous diagrams, color illustrations and photographs serve to complement and illuminate this thoroughly-referenced and researched introduction to mycorrhizal systems. 81/2 x 11 inches, 196 pages, softcover.

NEW! Mycorrhizal Symbiosis, Third Edition
By S.E. Smith and D.J. Read. Mycorrhizal fungi exist in symbiosis with the root systems of plants and trees, increasing their water and nutrient uptake and protecting them from disease. This second edition of the definitive scholarly work on the science of mycorrhizal fungi is fully updated and revised. Topics include separate accounts of major mycorrhizal types, in-depth analysis of the evolution and development of mycorrhizae and expanded investigation into diversity of form and function within major mycorrhizal types. This is the book on the role of mycorrhizal fungi in the ecosystem! 800 pages, hardcover.

Insect-Fungal Associations: Ecology and Evolution
Edited by Fernando E. Vega and Meredith Blackwell. Insects and fungi have a shared history of association in common habitats where together they endure similar environmental conditions. This volume covers "seven wonders of the insect-fungus world" for which exciting new results have become available, often due to the use of new methods that include phylogenetic analysis and development of molecular markers. The book is presented in two sections, "Fungi that act against insects" and "Fungi mutualistic with insects" that cover a number of major themes, in tremendous depth and scope. 352 pages, hardcover.

Biodiversity of Fungi: Inventory and Monitoring Methods
 |
Edited by Mercedes S. Foster, Gerald F. Bills and Greg M. Mueller. This book is essential for anyone collecting and/or monitoring any fungi. Biodiversity of Fungi: Inventory and Monitoring Methods contains a wealth of information, especially regarding sampling protocols. Compiled by an international team of fungal biologists, this book is an incredible and fundamental resource for the study of organismal biodiversity. Chapters cover everything from the definition of a fungus to maintaining and organizing a permanent study collection with associated databases; from protocols for sampling slime molds to insect associated fungi; from fungi growing on and in animals and plants to mushrooms and truffles. The chapters are arranged both ecologically and by sampling method rather than by taxonomic group for ease of use. The information presented here is intended for everyone interested in fungi, anyone who needs tools to study them in nature including naturalists, land managers, ecologists, mycologists, and even citizen scientists and sophisticated amateurs. 777 pages, hardcover.
