Book Description
This new book is the first single-source of taxonomic information on Leptographium species. Leptographium Species: Tree Pathogens, Insect Associates, and Agents of Blue-Stain covers all known species of the fungi. Detailed illustrations, comprehensive descriptions, and keys to the species will aid in the identification of this destructive fungi which is amongst the most important causal agents of sapstain in timber.Most of these fungi are carried by bark beetles, and the complex ecology of the relationships between Leptographium and their vectors has intrigued plant pathologists, mycologists, entomologists, ecologists, and foresters for years. This single resource will help anyone working with lumber accurately identify all known species of these fungi.

Book Description
Fungi are among the most versatile and diverse groups of organisms in their morphology, life cycles, and ecology. This has provided endless fasci nation and intrigue to those who have studied fungi, but it has also made it difficult to understand fungal biology from the perspective of the broader fields of evolution, ecology, genetics, and population biology. That is changing. Details of fungal biology have been elucidated at an exciting pace, increasingly allowing us to understand fungi on the bases of general biological principles. Moreover, many who study fungi have lately emulated some of the great mycologists and plant pathologists of the early years in applying an insight born of broad perspective. This change has been particularly apparent in fungal population biology. In this book, many of those at the forefront of that change summarize, integrate and comment on recent developments and ideas on populations of fungi. By taking a broad perspective, they show how new information on fungi may contribute to concepts and ideas of biology as a whole. Just as important, they contribute to further invigoration of fungal population research by illuminating mycology with new ideas and concepts, derived in part from other biological fields.

Book Description
"This book is based on a symposium held in Bad Windsheim, Germany, in Aug. 1990. The 30 chapters are grouped into 5 sections. Part I concerns morphological taxonomy of the ophiostomatoid fungi, including their anamorphs. In Part II, nonmorphological taxonomic approaches are considered, including genetic, biochemical, developmental and molecular characters. In Part III, the pathological aspects are introduced, beginning with considerations of saprobic growth and progressing through tree diseases to human diseases. Part IV includes reviews of a variety of insect vector systems and host responses to both the insects and the fungi. A few chapters, including information on methods for handling ophiostomatoid fungi, a key for their identification and a list of described species, were not presented at the symposium."--pub. desc.
