EEB 420 - Fungal Diversity3 Credit Hours
Ecology and evolutionary biology of fungi revealed mostly through use of molecular techniques. Many fungi, and the ecological roles they serve, are often obscure due to their ephemeral nature, difficulty of detection, and convergent gross morphological similarities. Advances in molecular biology have uncovered an unanticipated depth of diversity in fungi and permitted scientists to address research questions not possible until only recently. This seminar will provide an overview of fungal ecology and evolution by examining the primary literature. Multiple dimensions of fungal diversity are explored: taxonomic, genetic, and functional.
