Mycology is the branch of botany that study the fungi and related organisms that do not produce their own food by means of photosynthesis, and reproduce by means of spores. (Kingdom Fungi or Mycota)

Mycology is the study of fungi their morphology, genetic, physiology and taxonomy. It is closely related to phytopathology: the study of plant diseases.
Fungi are eukaryotic organisms which are heterotrophic and evolutionarily more closely related to animals than plants, but historically, mycology was a branch of Botany (despite fungi not being plants).

Pesticides and anticryptogamics are not really a good way to combat fungal diseases because they can be expensive and detrimental to the environment and to humans. They also can lead to the development of resistant fungal strains.
