Abstract

Background
The crisis of antibiotic resistance has been much discussed in recent decades within research communities and also in public. However, options to slow down the spread of resistance and the opportunities to discover new antimicrobial agents seem to be limited at present. Can we, by unlocking the hidden potential of fungi, attain
new means to gain advantage in this battle?
