Fungal Diversity and Potential Health Benefits of Mycophagy in Chacma Baboons (Papio ursinus)
Free‐ranging chacma baboons (Papio ursinus) in Nature's Valley, South Africa, of multiple age/sex classes eat diverse fungi (10 identified to species level, 3 to genus level). We assess potential nutritional, medicinal and ecosystem implications of consumption of these fungi based on human and other mammalian mycophagy literature.

Short‐Term Effect of Different Agronomic Managements on Soil Carbon Fractions Content
ABSTRACT This research investigates the short‐term impact of different agricultural management strategies on soil organic matter (SOM), focusing on particulate organic matter (POM) and mineral‐associated organic matter (MAOM). The study assessed the effects of organic fertilisation (compost vs.

Direct Ambient Mass Spectrometry for Food, Beverage, and Agricultural Sample Analysis and Research
ABSTRACT Ambient and direct mass spectrometry (MS) methods are becoming increasingly used for the rapid analysis of food, beverage and agricultural samples. Novel ionization approaches combined with targeted, or untargeted workflows provide analytical outcomes within a greatly reduced time period compared to traditional separation science coupled with ...

Drought and high temperatures are expected to increase in Europe, in particular in Mediterranean regions, where black truffle (Tuber melanosporum Vittad.) is mainly harvested. This fungus, living in symbiotic ectomycorrhizal association with trees, is important in forest ecosystems and agricultural diversification.
