Mycological Research in Spain

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue of the Journal of Fungi is dedicated to showcasing fungal research conducted in Spain or by Spanish researchers. This Special Issue aims to spotlight the rich contributions of Spanish researchers to the global understanding of fungi and their multifaceted roles in ecosystems, health, and industry.

We invite submissions across a broad spectrum of mycological topics, including, but not limited to, the following:

1. Fungal pathogenesis and disease control;
2. Surveillance and antifungal susceptibility testing;
3. Diagnostic and management of fungal infections;
4. Fungal outbreaks;
5. Pathogenic fungi and their impacts on human and animal health;
6. Fungal biodiversity and systematics in Spanish ecosystems;
7. Fungal ecology and its interactions with the environment;
8. Molecular and genetic studies of fungi;
9. The use of fungi in biotechnology and industrial applications.

This Special Issue offers a platform to highlight the exceptional work carried out by Spanish researchers and to showcase the unique fungal diversity found in Spain. We believe that this collection will not only contribute significantly to the field of mycology but also foster new collaborations and spark future research initiatives.

Dr. Ana Alastruey-Izquierdo

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed.

Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Fungi is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
