Scientists of the future at the 30th Fungal Genetics Conference

Editors of Fungal Biology and Biotechnology recently attended the 30th Fungal Genetics Conference in Pacific Grove, CA, USA. We invited young scientists who presented excellent posters at the conference to tell us more about their research. In this blog, we hear from Hans Mattila, Itai Brand-Thomas, Ken Miyazawa, Emmanuelle LeBlanc, and Norman Paege about their work.

Wood decomposition itself is actually orchestrated by its hypha that elongates beneath the bark and even penetrates the dead wood.
