This book highlights recent advances in the pathogenicity, mycotoxin-producing ability, and industrial application of members belonging to the genus *Aspergillus*. It is divided into two sections and six chapters that address different aspects and the importance of Aspergilli in relation to *Aspergillus–*human interactions, immunopathogenesis of invasive aspergillosis, the role of aflatoxin in *Aspergillus flavus* resilience to stress, mycovirus-containing *A. flavus* and carcinogenesis beyond mycotoxin production, and industrial application of *Aspergillus* species in conjunction to nanoparticle synthesis. This book brings readers several cutting-edge aspects of *Aspergillus* research with useful information for mycologists, microbiologists, toxicologists, plant pathologists, and pharmacologists, who may be interested in understanding the impact, significance, and recent advances within the genus *Aspergillus* that have not been critically noticed elsewhere.
