AAM: Fungal Stress Mechanisms and Responses explores the adaptive strategies and biotechnological applications of fungi under stress conditions. This volume features an array of reviews by experts in the field, reviewing different aspects of fungal stress responses. The initial three chapters focus on stress in fungal insect pathogens, while chapters 4–6 address the impact of stressful environmental conditions on fungi used for bioremediation. The last chapter investigates the molecular aspects of copper homeostasis in human fungal pathogens. This volume offers a comprehensive collection of findings that help our understanding of fungal stress responses and their applications in agriculture, medicine, and the environment.
