Frontiers in Fungal Biology

Aims & Scope

Frontiers in Fungal Biology is a multidisciplinary journal indexed in the DOAJ, PubMed Central (PMC), Scopus, and Web of Science (ESCI) that investigates all aspects of fungal biology to better understand fungi's complex interactions.

With an international editorial board, led by Field Chief Editor Gustavo Henrique Goldman (University of São Paulo, Brazil), this journalcombines agricultural, medical, and industrial mycology to study fungal interactions and improve human, animal, and plant lives.

The journal covers the following subject areas: • fungal biotechnology • fungal genomics and evolution • fungal physiology and metabolism • fungal secondary metabolites and mycotoxins • fungi-animal interactions • fungi-environment interactions (fungi-soil, fungi-microbe...) • fungi-plant interactions • marine and freshwater fungi.

Frontiers in Fungal Biology welcomes submissions that advance findings on all aspects of fungal biology, including fungal secondary metabolites and mycotoxins, host-fungal interactions in humans, animals and plants, fungi in agriculture, fungal biodiversity and taxonomic and phylogenetic studies, fungal genomics, and fungal biotechnology.
