Special Issue on Fungi, Mycology and Applications

Fungi are any member of the group of eukaryotic organisms that includes microorganisms such as yeasts and molds, as well as the more familiar mushrooms. A characteristic that places fungi in a different kingdom from plants, bacteria, and some protists is chitin in their cell walls. Similar to animals, fungi are heterotrophs; they acquire their food by absorbing dissolved molecules, typically by secreting digestive enzymes into their environment.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on Fungi, Mycology and Applications. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Biochemical properties
• Ecology of fungi
• Molecular genetic and genomic approaches
• Application of molecular mycology
• Plants and fungi research
• Fungi in food, agriculture and biotechnology
• Fungi, environment and sustainable development
• Fungal biodegradation
• Fungal biodiversity and soil health
• Fungal infections and treatment
• Mycotoxins

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.

Please kindly notice that the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title is supposed to be specified and the research field “Special Issue – Fungi, Mycology and Applications” should be chosen during your submission.

According to the following timetable:
