It analyzes how the specific interactions with the hosts and the influence of the environment may have shaped genome evolution. The relevance of fungal genetic research and biotechnological applications is shown for areas such as plant pathogenesis, biomass degradation, litter decomposition, nitrogen assimilation, antibiotic production, mycoparasitism, energy, ecology, and also for soil fungi turning to human pathogens. In addition to the model organisms Neurospora and Aspergillus, the following species are covered providing a view of pathogens and mutualists: Trichoderma, Fusarium oxysporum, Cochliobolus heterostrophus, Penicillium chrysogenum, Rhizopus oryzae, Podospora anserina, and species belonging to Agaricomycetes, Archaeorhizomycetes and Magnaporthaceae. Ecology and potential applications have guided the choice of fungal genes to be studied and it will be fascinating to follow the trends of future sequencing projects. 410 0$aSoil biology ;$v36. 606 $aFungi$xGenetics 606 $aSoil fungi 606 $aPlant-fungus relationships 615 0$aFungi$xGenetics. 615 0$aSoil fungi. 615 0$aPlant-fungus relationships. 676 $a570 676 $a579.1718 676 $a579/.1718 702 $aHorwitz$b Benjamin A. 801 0$bMiFhGG 801 1$bMiFhGG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910437858103321 996 $aGenomics of Soil- and Plant-Associated Fungi$92542170 997 $aUNINA
