内容説明

This book presents a comprehensive description of the physiology, biochemistry, genetics and industrial applications of the genus Aspergillus. It includes a compilation of data on the identification and classification, laboratory and industrial growth conditions and culture collections followed by specialized sections on pathogenesis, molecular biology, biotechnological applictions and ecology. Because of their physiological versatility, Aspergilli are some of the most widely distributed and abundant of living things. Many species have negative economic impact as agents of disease, decay and toxin production. Others have been harnessed for human benefit in food fermentations, industrial processes, and as model systems for genetic studies. Examples of medically and industrially important species include: A. flavus (aflatoxin production); A. fumigatus (etiological agent in aspergillosis); A. nidulans (model system for genetic studies); A. niger (citric acid production); A. oryzae (saki and soy sauce production). "Aspergillus: Biology and Industrial Applications" will present a comprehensive description of the physiology, biochemistry, genetics, and industrial application of the genus.
