http://schema.org/description

  • "This treatise on fungi is intended as a reference and texbook. Its content falls naturally into two portions. The first portions, included in volume I, is a consideration of the developmental morphology and taxonomy of fungi and is basic to any comprehensive study of the fungi. The second portion,included in Volume II, deals more specifically with the activities of fungi. It must be borne in mind, however, that we have attempted throughout the treatise to stress the need for more emphasis on problems relating to fungis activities. The content of Volume II is concerned with metabolic and reproductive activities."
