Infos

The aim of this volume is to describe the latest advances in microscopic methods, including integrated techniques, as applied to mycology. Each chapter will provide a brief overview of a particular microscopic method with associated advantages and limitations, the research questions that can be appropriately addressed using these microscopic methods, how it has been successfully applied to address mycological research questions, including supporting and complimentary techniques, and which future questions can be addressed.

Prof. Dr. Tanya Dahms serves as professor of Biochemistry and Microscopy at the University of Regina. She is head of the Dahms group, which currently studies microbial responses to external stimuli, including mechanisms associated with carbohydrate remodeling.
