Dealing with major aspects of fungal development during time this volume is divided into the following four sections:
· Evolutionary Roots of Fungi
· Evolution of Signaling in Fungi and Fungal-Like Organisms
· Evolution of Mutualistic Systems and Metabolism in Fungi
· Evolutionary Mechanisms and Trends
Der Autor Prof. Dr. Johannes Wöstemeyer lehrt an der Universität Jena.

lt;p>From the reviews:
"It is a gathering of reviews dealing with various aspects of fungal evolution. ... most of the reviews are comprehensive, detailed presentations of the topics that can be useful in teaching or as an overview of that field." (Gábor M. Kovács, Inoculum, Vol. 63 (6), December, 2012)
"The main aim of this book is to provide knowledge about the evolution of fungi and fungal-like organisms. ... this book is a complete package for scholars who want to assimilate information and knowledge on the evolution of the fungi since the origin. ... Should be available in all college and university libraries where study on fungi is offered. It is also useful source of information for undergraduates as well as their teachers and researchers." (Shova Baral, Fungal Diversity, Vol. 57 (1), November, 2012)
