Mycological Progress publishes papers on all aspects of fungi, including lichens. While Review Papers are highly welcome, the main focus is on Research Articles on
Taxonomy and Systematics
Evolution
Cell Biology
Ecology
Biotechnology
Pathology (plants, animals, humans)
Manuscripts on current methods applied in, e.g., morphology, anatomy, ultrastructure (TEM, SEM), genetics, molecular biology, chemistry, and physiology will also be considered.
