Their level of diversity is very high and only lower than that of insects. This book deals with fungal diversity in the Mediterranean, a large area recognized as a biodiversity hot spot. Micro and macrofungi contribute to characterizing many environments, both terrestrial and marine, in which they are associated with particular forest stands and also contribute to providing plant and soil nutrients. They also show potential applications in the medical and pharmaceutical fields, have a recognized nutritional and commercial value and still provide many insights to scholars in terms of description of new species and actions aimed at in situ and ex situ conservation.Biology, life sciencesbicsscResearch & information: generalbicsscAegean SeaalderAlnicolaarbuscular mycorrhizal fungiarid areasascomycetesAsphondyliaB. dothideabasidiomycetebasidiomycetesBasidiomycotabiological propertiesbioprospectingBotryosphaeriaconserved areasculture collectionDNA metabarcodingDNA sequencingectomycorrhizafungal diversityfungal straingall-associated fungigallsgenetic diversitygrazingGrifola frondosahigh altitude forestshostItalyITS rDNALamiaceaelignicolous fungimacrofungimarine fungimedicinal mushroomMediterraneanMediterranean forestmicrosatelliteMontenegromorphological and molecular identificationmushroom diversitymycorrhizaneedle pathogensnew taxaphylogenetic relationshipsphylogeneticsphylogenypolypore fungusQuercus pubescenssaprotrophSSRsymbiosiswhite trufflewood decay fungi (WDF)Biology, life sciencesResearch & information: generalVenturella Giuseppeedt79391Venturella GiuseppeothBOOK9910557298503321Fungal Diversity in the Mediterranean Area3023815UNINA
