The analysis of the works allowed us to observe that there are significant differences in the presentation of the content and approach between the previous and the current collection that belong to the same educational center and between collections of different educational center. The data indicate that there are challenges in the preparation and presentation of fungal content in textbooks that need to be overcome by teachers, authors and publishers of books.
