Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Mycoses are responsible for high rates of morbidity and mortality. One of the major problems related to these diseases is antifungal treatment, due to the limited number of antifungal drugs and increasing cases of antifungal resistance. In this context, natural plant products stand out as an important alternative for the treatment of mycoses.

This Special Issue will address the antifungal activity of plant extracts for insights into the potential of natural products for the treatment of mycoses.

This Special Issue of the Microbiology Research will present state-of-the-art reviews and research articles on the topic of “Antifungal Activities of Plant Extracts” in order to support antifungal treatment.
