Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As an important source of natural products, fungi play a special role in medicine, food, brewing and other fields, and also play an irreplaceable role in biology and ecology. With the higher needs of human beings in the field of health, more and more new methods and techniques have been applied to the discovery of natural products with novel structures and significant biological activities. However, the current methods are still unable to meet the pace of rapid development of human society. We need to continue to develop new research methods and explore biological functional active molecules beneficial to human health under the premise of following the laws of nature. Benefit from the abundant resources and powerful genetic manipulation space of fungi, humans will make great achievements in the field of natural products of fungi.

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. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. 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.
