Carbon transfer from the host to Tuber melanosporum mycorrhizas and ascocarps followed using a 13C pulse-labeling technique. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Truffles ascocarps need carbon to grow, but it is not known whether this carbon comes directly from the tree (heterotrophy) or from soil organic matter (saprotrophy).

Effect of Selected Truffle-Associated Bacteria and Fungi on the Mycorrhization of Quercus ilex Seedlings with Tuber melanosporum [PDF]
BioTechThe success of truffle cultivation is especially dependent on the quality of truffle-mycorrhized seedlings, which are typically produced in nurseries under aseptic conditions to avoid root colonization by undesired ectomycorrhizal fungi.

The genomic tool-kit of the truffle Tuber melanosporum programmed cell death. [PDF]
Cell Death Discov, 2018 AbstractA survey of the truffle Tuber melanosporum genome has shown the presence of 67 programmed cell death (PCD)-related genes. The 67 genes are all expressed during fruit body (FB) development of T. melanosporum development; their expression has been detected by DNA microarrays and qPCR. A set of 14 PCD-related genes have been chosen, those with the

Application of Quantitative Magnetic Resonance Imaging (QMRI) to Evaluate the Effectiveness of Ultrasonic Atomization of Water in Truffle Preservation [PDF]
Journal of FungiTruffles of the Tuber genus (Pezizales, Ascomycetes) are among the most valuable and expensive foods, but their shelf life is limited to 7–10 days when stored at 4 °C. Alternative preservation methods have been proposed to extend their shelf life, though

Potential aromatic compounds as markers to differentiate between Tuber melanosporum and Tuber indicum truffles [PDF]
Food Chemistry, 2013 The Tuber indicum (Chinese truffle) and Tuber melanosporum (Black truffle) species are morphologically very similar but their aromas are very different. The black truffle aroma is much more intense and complex, and it is consequently appreciated more gastronomically. This work tries to determine whether the differences between the aromatic compounds of

Three New Truffle Species (Tuber, Tuberaceae, Pezizales, and Ascomycota) from Yunnan, China, and Multigen Phylogenetic Arrangement within the Melanosporum Group [PDF]
Journal of FungiBased on a multi-locus phylogeny of a combined dataset of ITS, LSU, tef1-α, and rpb2 and comprehensive morphological analyses, we describe three new species from the Melanosporum group of genus Tuber and synonymize T. pseudobrumale and T. melanoexcavatum.

Diversity of Ectomycorrhizal Fungal Communities Associated with Tuber koreanum in Korea [PDF]
MycobiologyEctomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) are crucial for the formation of Tuber fruiting bodies, including the newly discovered T. koreanum, in Korea. This study explores the diversity and distribution of EMF communities associated with T.
