Mycology in the Tropics: Updates on Philippine Fungi
Jonathan Jaime G. Guerrero
Mycology in the Tropics: Updates on Philippine Fungi is an initiative for comprehensively discussing the current state of Philippine mycology, including the historical developments in its various fields. The Philippines are known to be a megabiodiversity hotspot with numerous forest ecosystems within its tropical climate. However, the country is also listed as one of the most threatened ecosystems on the planet necessitating an urgent assessment of the country's mycoflora. Despite this need, resources on Philippine mycology have been scarce or scattered within available literature.
In 15 chapters Mycology in the Tropics: Updates on Philippine Fungi provides both an introduction to mycology, describes the fungal taxonomy and biodiversity and gives an insight into the applications of mycology in medical and environmental science. It describes the global importance of local mycology for the development of the potential of fungi, to deliver what is needed and to address the major global challenges through new biological processes, products, and solutions. Medical, agricultural, industrial, environmental, biodiversity, forestry, aquatic, and other aspects of mycology are discussed thoroughly in each chapter.
