Taxonomy of the Truffles

truffles, ascomycetes, fungiAbstract
Truffles are the hypogeous fruiting bodies of Ascomycete fungi that live in symbiosis with roots of trees such as oaks, hazels, poplar, etc. Due to limited morphological characters, these fungi are difficult to identify at species level. Molecular phylogenetic studies have recently demonstrated that morphological characters of hypogeous Ascomycetes can be unreliable.
