This fully revised 3rd edition of Fungal Genomics highlights the impact of genomics on the field of fungal biology in four sections:

Part I Genome Sequences and Beyond

Examines the impact of genome-based information and techniques on research ranging from the discovery of giant transposons to the analysis of less-studied extremotolerant fungi as well as studies of three-dimensional chromatin organization in fungi.

Part II Cell and Developmental Biology

Explores advances in high-throughput genetics/genomics and RNA editing in fungi, the role of codons in gene regulation, and the analysis of epigenetic regulation in early-diverging fungi.

Part III Biotechnology

Covers the search for plant biomass-converting enzymes in fungal genomes and work with industrially important fungi.

Part IV Interactions - Symbioses, Mutualisms, and Pathogens

Explains the genomic analysis of the emerging human pathogen Candida auris as well as genomic signatures in ectomycorrhizal fungi.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the exciting field of fungal genomics.
