Annotation
Please note, the lectures are given in Czech language only.
The course is aimed at major fungal lineages, historical and recent concepts in fungal taxonomy. Recent studies are emphasized with focus on fungal morphology, life-cycles and partially ekology. Students present selected papers during the talks. During the practics, selected fungi mentioned in the lectures are surveyed by microscopy.
