For this assignment, do the following, using any RECENT
resource, i.e., news about Fungi published within the last
year:
4) Find an account of new information about any type of fungus
that is somehow HARMING humans.
BE SURE to list the fungal species, the
phylum to which it belongs, the specific type of effect it has,
and, for the species other than human, name the species. The fungal
species that you report do not have to be symbiotes, but it is
perfectly acceptable to include symbiotes. Thus, each one of these
four categories should be about a paragraph in length.
please DO NOT report on ANY of the following fungal
relationship: cheese, wine, beer making, soy sauce, bread,
Mushrooms, morels, truffles or penicillin, lysergic acid,
psilocybin, Ergotism or Diseases – In humans,
athlete’s foot, “ringworm”, thrush, “yeast infection”,
Histoplasmosis, and thses diseases in plants Dutch Elm disease,
Chestnut Blight, corn smut, leaf rust.
Please include URL’s or relevant sources for all four
postings, I would expect each will be a different article,
so you should have at least four sources.
