Hardcover. Zustand: New. Fungi are omnipresent and cosmopolitan in distribution. Fungi are the second species-rich organisms group after Insects. Fungi play an important role in decomposition, industry, agriculture, medicine, biotechnology and many other related aspects of human welfare. 13 million fungi have been in the world. Today around 140,000 fungal species are reported in the world, while in India only 30000 fungal species are reported. This is more challenging task to compile the fungal inventory as compared other organisms such as plants. Moreover, there is no red data book on fungi in India. Keeping in view the above aspects diversity, conservation and utilization aspects of fungi have much greater important. The fungal flora of India is rich and diverse. One-third of the global biodiversity of fungi occur in India. The problems faced by the researchers are enormous due to the non-availability of complete data on the reported fungi from India. Hence, it has become important in bringing out up to date list of fungi reported from India. It has also become a necessity for fungal taxonomists. Therefore, the listing of Indian Fungi is important. Earlier, Late Prof. K. S. Bilgrami and his colleagues had taken much of effort to bring out the volumes of Fungi of India, wherein they had mentioned about the name of the fungus, collection place, date/ year etc. along with its related references. The present revision of "Fungi of India" Part I includes fungi reported from 1979 to 1988 and Part II includes enlisting fungi from 1988-2020, with their complete data with 1051 references.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. 1st Edition. The book entitled "Documentary of Agaricomycetous Mushrooms of India" provides updated compilation of basic data and information on 1920 mushroom taxa belonging to 207 genera spread over 35 families and 3 orders of fleshy fungi published till date from India. The broad classification adopted for compilation of this treatise is largely based on the latest version of the Dictionary of Fungi authored by Kirk et al. (2008). In this documentary the Orders, Families, Genera and Species are arranged in alphabetic order under respective taxonomic category. For a particular taxon, the name of the class, order, family, respective authority and citation has been given as per authentic information available in the MycoBank and Index Fungorum. For every species and variety listed under respective genus, the exact information about the state of its occurrence and the documenting author has been provided. At the end of the documentary the references, which appeared in the main body of the manuscript are listed in an alphabetical order. This data base is likely to set the tone for more explorative work and will provide a significant base line. The gilled and poroid mushrooms embrace diverse and fascinating arrays of fleshy fungi. They are of great interest because of their relevance in nutritional and neutraceutical aspects, mycorrhizal association with plants, and as saprophytes and parasites. This book will be of interest to diverse group of users and we understand clearly that there may have been some inadvertent omissions in our compilation.
