Reviews
From the reviews:
" ... very good reference volume, which will prove of value to both mycologists and biotechnolgists." (Mycologist)
"Having found a number of the volumes in this series very useful, I was looking forward to reading vol. 10 covering my particular area of interest. I have to say that I found the contents … varied. All the chapters are readable and informative … ." (J. Kelley, Bibliography of Systematic Mycology, Vol. 11 (5), April, 2003)
"This volume of The Mycota contains 21 chapters reviewing the role of fungi in traditional and more recent biotechnologies. ... On the whole, the highly detailed chapters are amply illustrated with figures and tables and provided with detailed bibliographies, and are well written … . will prove of value to both mycologists and biotechnologists." (Brian Flannigan, Mycologist, Vol. 17 (1), 2003)
"The latest volume in this series provides an overview of both traditional and novel industrial applications of fungi from their role in the production of bread, cheese, fermented foods, beer and wines, to their potential in bioremediation. ... it represents a useful source of information for undergraduates as well as their teachers and researchers. Recommended for purchase by academic libraries." (Vicki Tariq, Microbiology Today, Vol. 29, August, 2002)
From the reviews of the second edition:
“This new book … covers the recent development in the industry of fungal world … . this book is good for those interested in industrial application of fungi … . It is also well referenced and updated so the recent development can be clearly viewed from this book. … should be available in all college and university libraries where courses in plant pathology and biotechnology are offered. It is also useful source of information for undergraduates as well as their teachers and researchers.” (Shova Baral, Fungal Diversity, April, 2012)
