Subterranean Fungi of the genus Tuber live and grow only in symbiosis, with certain trees or plants roots (various species of oak, hazel, pine, linden, poplar, juniper, etc.), requiring specific pedoclimatic conditions.

Is small mammal mycophagy relevant for truffle cultivation?
The role of small mammal mycophagy as vectors of hypogeous fungi is well established. However, little is known about dispersal of gourmet truffle species by mammal vectors, or about the potential role of mycophagy in truffle plantations.

Response of Tuber melanosporum fruiting to canopy opening in a Pinus-Quercus forest [PDF]
[EN] The wild production of the highly appreciated fungus Tuber melanosporum is negatively affected by canopy closure in the stand. Habitat improvement has been proposed as a tool to recover the production in close forests, but evaluations based on scientific monitoring are still lacking.

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.

Abstract In systems where low temperatures limit plant productivity, facilitative effects of surrounding vegetation on juvenile plants may outweigh effects of competition for resources. This facilitation could occur through temperature buffering but also via increased availability of root mutualists such as mycorrhizal fungi.

ABSTRACT The truffle beetle, Leiodes cinnamomeus, is the most important pest in black truffle (Tuber melanosporum) plantations. Adults and mycophagous larvae are active during autumn and winter, while diapausing larvae are not. Previous laboratory studies demonstrated the high virulence of the entomopathogenic nematode (EPN) Heterorhabditis ...
