Effects of combining electron-beam or gamma irradiation treatments with further storage under modified atmospheres on the bioactive compounds of Tuber melanosporum truffles

open access: yesPostharvest Biology and Technology, 2019
The effects of electron-beam or gamma irradiation (both applied at 1.5 kGy and 2.5 kGy) and subsequent storage under modified atmospheres (35 d at 4 °C) were evaluated on total carbohydrates, chitins, β-glucans, proteins, total phenols, sterols and ...

Bayesian functional linear regression with sparse step functions

open access: yes, 2016
The functional linear regression model is a common tool to determine the relationship between a scalar outcome and a functional predictor seen as a function of time. This paper focuses on the Bayesian estimation of the support of the coefficient function.

Direct Ambient Mass Spectrometry for Food, Beverage, and Agricultural Sample Analysis and Research

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, Volume 45, Issue 2, Page 429-452, March/April 2026.
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 ...

Increased temperature and drought do not threaten the mycelium of Tuber melanosporum in Mediterranean regions

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 556-562, March 2026.
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.

Demystifying fungal systematics: A gateway to fungal literacy and societal/ecological relevance through familiar species

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 499-515, March 2026.
Fungal systematics can feel overwhelming given the vast species diversity within this kingdom, with numerous subgroups at every taxonomic rank. This often creates a disconnect between the undertsnidng of fungal taxonomic diversity and their societal relevance.

Signaling from below: rodents select for deeper fruiting truffles with stronger volatile emissions.

open access: yesEcology, 2019
Many plant and fungal species use volatile organic compounds (VOCs) as chemical signals to convey information about the location or quality of their fruits or fruiting bodies to animal dispersers.
