It also looks forward to publishing overviews of methodological aspects of fungal biology, for example, fungal genomics and other high-throughput -omic techniques.Fungal Biology Reviews embraces the study of the kingdom of Fungi and diverse organisms that were recognized as fungi, including lichens, microsporidia, and fungi-like protozoans, such as Oomycetes (water molds) or Myxomycetes (slime molds). We welcome submissions based on the canonical model fungi such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Aspergillus nidulans, and Neurospora crassa, and are open to other and newly emerging experimental systems. The journal would like to become a podium where views on fungal biology or new hypotheses in fungal biology are shared in so-called opinion papers.We are ready to consider reviews on plant pathology (and the study of endo- and epiphytes), the rhizosphere, bulk soil microbiology, the impact of climate change, as well as mutualistic and parasitic interactions. We are interested in geomycology, dispersal strategies and adaptations, hyphal and spore biomechanics, and biophysics.Additiona...
