Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In various environments, fungi are important members of ecosystems as symbionts, saprophytes, and pathogens. we can find fungi everywhere, but their diversity and role in the environments are largely unexplored. In this Special Issue of the Journal of Fungi, we invite contributions that expand our knowledge on the fungal diversity in various environments. The topics of special interest and focus are:
- Novel species, taxonomy, and systematics;
- Biodiversity, community composition, and distribution;
- Ecology, symbiosis, and interaction with other organisms;
- Bioactivity (e.g., antibiotic effect, plant-growth promotion, enzyme activity, etc) and secondary metabolites.
Thank you for your contributions.
Dr. Seung-Yoon Oh
