Since the first truffle plantations were established in France, Italy and other parts in the
world, many studies have been carried out to improve their productivity and sustainability …

Truffles are hypogeous ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi belonging to the genus Tuber. Although
outplanting of truffle-inoculated host plants has enabled the realization of productive …

Belowground ectomycorrhizal communities are often species rich. Characterization of the
ectomycorrhizas (ECMs) underneath native truffle areas and/or cultivation sites is …

Below-ground ectomycorrhizal communities are often species-rich, and monitoring their
dynamics is important to understand the conditions that promote truffle fructification …

Seasonal dynamics of black truffle (Tuber melanosporum) extraradical mycelium as well as
the associated mycorrhizal community have been evaluated in a 16-year-old plantation with …

Although Tuber borchii is a commercially valuable truffle, its habitat has been virtually
ignored. Here, we examine the ectomycorrhizal fungal communities in natural T. borchii …

Truffle (Tuber spp.) cultivation is based on raising mycorrhizal trees in greenhouses that
have been inoculated with suspensions of ascospores. The problem with this is that pests …

Truffles are fungi producing hypogeous fruiting bodies belonging to at least 13
phylogenetically distant orders. The most studied are “true truffles” belonging to the genus …

Truffles, the hypogeous ascocarps of the ectomycorrhizal genus Tuber, are currently
cultivated in orchards to partially offset declining wild production in Europe. Truffle cultivation …

The knowledge of the host diversity in the Tuber genus, an economically important group of
ectomycorrhizal fungi, is of crucial importance for efficient cultivation system establishment …
