Descriptions of Fungi and Bacteria: OnlineThe Descriptions of Fungi and Bacteria are designed for use by plant pathologists and veterinary and medical mycologists. They provide integrated information to allow identification / confirmation of identity of significant species, along with related information on pathology or other economic significance. The Descriptions of Fungi and Bacteria were initiated in 1964, and more than 1600 sheets have been issued, each devoted to a single species. Descriptions of Fungi and Bacteria are produced by CABI Bioscience. Each sheet is written by an authority on that particular organism. Because of this expert authorship Descriptions of Fungi and Bacteria are widely regarded as official definitions of the species concerned. A large proportion of the illustrations and photos are unique to DFB and a substantial number of species are not adequately illustrated elsewhere. |
