Biodiversity of Fungi: Their Role of Human Life covers different aspects of fungal diversity, fungal phylogeny, fungi from little-explored and extreme habitats, endophytes in tropical forests, their diversity and ecology, and biodiversity and molecular aspects of halophilic fungi. Exploitationo filamentous fungi for the degradation of organopollutants by ligninolytic basidiomycetes, etomychorrizal fungi, aquatic fungi and other fungi along with the keratinophilci fungi from birds and degradation of bird feathers by these fungi are also included.
