mushroom, basidiomycetes are important as plant and human
pathogens. Cryptococcus neoformans is a human pathogen of
considerable importance, especially in individuals with
AIDS or other conditions that reduce the effectiveness of
the immune response. Ustilago maydis or corn smut is a
significant agricultural pathogen.
