Fungal Cell Wall

Jose Ruiz-Herrera's classic monograph Fungal Cell Wall: Structure, Synthesis and Assembly guided a generation of researchers in both basic and applied science who worked with fungal systems. This revision is the first up-to-date review of the fungal cell wall since the original publication in 1992. The importance of the cell wall in the growth, morphogenesis, and evolution of the Kingdom Fungi has been magnified due to the important experimental evidence accumulated since 1992. Applicable to students, professors, and researchers, this book gathers and discusses in detail all this information, which has not been critically reviewed and synthesized thus far.
