"The Fungal Kingdom: Diverse and Essential Roles in Earth's Ecosystem," (June 2008)
Prepared by Arturo Casadevall, Joe Heitman, and Merry Buckley
Fungi can cause a number of life-threatening diseases but they also are becoming increasingly useful to science and manufacturing every year. However, many people, scientists among them, are largely unaware of the roles fungi play in the world around us. Research on fungi and fungal diseases are seriously neglected as a result – a situation with grave negative repercussions for human health, agriculture, and the environment. The Fungal Kingdom explores the roles fungi play in the world around us.
