“…Research into fungal biology and fungal stress can help solve many issues related to human health, climate change, food security, environmental impacts, etc. (Rangel et al, 2015a;Rangel et al, 2015b). Fungi can be used for bioremediation (Gadd, 2016); to replace synthetic pesticides (Li et al, 2010;Rangel and Correia, 2003;Santi et al, 2011); to produce biofuels (Alper et al, 2006;Lam et al, 2014), novel antibiotics (Mygind et al, 2005), enzymes (Maheshwari et al, 2000), and useful chemicals (Hagedorn and Kaphammer, 1994).…”
