Abstract: According to isotopic labeling experiments, most of the carbon used by truffle (Tuber sp.) fruiting bodies to develop underground is provided by host trees, suggesting that trees and truffles are physically connected. However, such physical… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.apsoil.2017.05.007
Abstract: Abstract Mycelium of ectomycorrhizal fungi colonizes soil that is extremely heterogeneous in terms of spatial arrangement as well as chemical and biological properties. Here we addressed which of the soil components would have the greatest… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.funbio.2021.05.002
Abstract: Truffles in the genus Tuber produce subterranean fruiting bodies that are not able to actively discharge their spores in the environment. For this reason, truffles depend on mycophagous animals for reproduction. Fungus consumption (mycophagy) is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/gcb.16424
Abstract: Global warming is pushing populations outside their range of physiological tolerance. According to the environmental envelope framework, the most vulnerable populations occur near the climatic edge of their species' distributions. In contrast, populations from the… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/foods11030298
Abstract: A PLE (pressurized liquid extraction) method was adjusted following a full-factorial experimental design to obtain bioactive-enriched fractions from Tuber aestivum and Terfezia claveryi. Temperature, time and solvent (water, ethanol and ethanol–water 1:1) parameters were investigated.… read more here.
