Review: Fungi from a cell biology perspective (Finally!) - I'm a graduate student working on a fungal pathogen and needed to brush up on my general fungal background. It's surprisingly difficult to find a textbook that approaches fungi from a cell biology perspective--most books tend to be skewed more towards phylogeny/taxonomy or identification. This book includes an overview of the taxonomy, but then goes more in-depth into the cellular/morphological characteristics that separate fungi from other eukaryotes. This textbook is easy to read and is written at a high undergraduate level; for full comprehension you'll need some background in basic cell biology. Most of the figures are black and white, though the book does also include a colorplate with several pages of full-color figures. I really enjoyed this textbook, and my lab mates keep borrowing it from me as well!
Review: Un libro maravilloso lleno de descripciones exquisitamente escritas sobre los diferentes procesos que suceden dentro de organismos de distintas especies de hongos. Uno de los libros más interesantes que conozco sobre los procesos en el reino Fungi. Altamente bien referenciado, muy serio, y muy profesional.
