  • Tuber Elevatireticulatum Sp. Nov., a New Species of Whitish Truffle from Taiwan
    Lin et al. Bot Stud (2018) 59:25 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40529-018-0241-y ORIGINAL ARTICLE Open Access Tuber elevatireticulatum sp. nov., a new species of whitish trufe from Taiwan Chieh‑Lung Lin1, Ming‑Jer Tsai2,3, Chuen‑Hsu Fu4, Tun‑Tschu Chang4, Hoi‑Tung Li5 and King‑Fai Wong6* Abstract Background: There are estimated 180–220 species of Tuber described in the world, but the diversity of the genus in Taiwan is poorly known, with only two species recorded, i.e., Tuber formosanum and T. furfuraceum. During our survey of hypogenous fungi in Taiwan, a whitish trufe belongs to Puberulum clade was collected from roots of Keteleeria fortunei var. cyclolepis in central Taiwan and appeared to difer from the two recorded species. Results: The whitish trufe is herein described as a new species Tuber elevatireticulatum, which is distinguished from closely resembled Asian whitish trufes species like Tuber thailandicum, T. panzhihuanense, T. latisporum and T. sinopu- berulum by the association with Keteleeria host, small light brown ascocarps with a dark brown gleba, dark brownish and elliptical ascospores ornamented with a prominently raised alveolate reticulum. Molecular phylogenetic analyses of both ITS and LSU loci clearly supports T. elevatireticulatum as a new species without any signifcant incongruence. Conclusions: The whitish trufe is herein described as a new species T. elevatireticulatum based on the evidence from morphology and DNA sequences. T. elevatireticulatum is the frst scientifc record of whitish trufe in Taiwan.

  • Taxomony and Mycorrhizal Ecology of the Desert Truffles in the Genus
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Abdulmagid M. Alsheikh for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Botany and Plant Pathology presented on July 8. 1994. Title: Taxonomy and Mycorrhizal Ecology of the Desert Truffles in the Genus Terfezia. Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: James M. Trappe Mycorrhizal fungi in arid and semiarid rangelands have received little study in southwest Asia and north Africa, although they are important in food production and rangeland productivity. The desert truffles of the genera Terfezia and Tirmania form fruiting-bodies and mycorrhizae with rangeland plants. This thesis treats the taxonomy and the ecology of the genus Terfezia. A second part describes experimental studies of the mycorrhizal associations between two Tirmania and two Terfezia spp. and six annual and perennial spp. of Cistaceae. Terfezia has been found in all continents except Australia and Antarctica. Most species and specimens have been collected from north Africa to west and southwest Asia and southern Europe. Terfezia is characterized by smooth, brown to dark brown ascomata with a gleba of brown, fertile, globose to elongated pockets separated by paler, sterile but otherwise undifferentiated tramal veins; globose to subglobose, reniform or saccate asci with (3-) 5-8 (14) spores; and mostly globose, hyaline to golden brown spores prominently ornamented with spines, rods, cones, warts, papillae or reticula. Before this study, names had been proposed for 57 species, 9 varieties and 1 form within the genus Terfezia. This work retains 18 species and no varietal names. No collections were located of one species and five synonyms. Three new species are provisionally proposed.

The two currently accepted multigene phylogenetic analyses species of Xylobotryum, X. andinum and X. portentosum, are described and illustrated by light and scanning elec- pyrenomycetes tron microscopy. The generic type species X. andinum is epitypified with a recent collection for which a culture and Sordariomycetes sequence data are available. Acknowledging the phylogenetic distinctness of Candelariomycetidae from Lecanoro­ mycetes revealed in previous and the current phylogenetic analyses, the new class Candelariomycetes is proposed.

INTRODUCTION genus and species Melanobotrys tasmanicus, a synonym of Xylobotryum andinum, without a familial affiliation. Miller Xylobotryum is an enigmatic stromatic ascomycete genus (1949) excluded Xylobotryum from Xylariaceae due to 2-celled characterised by a unique suite of characters, i.e., perithecioid ascospores and asci lacking a xylariaceous apical apparatus, ascomata on erect, branched or unbranched stromata, a hama- but did not propose an alternative classification.

    MYCOTAXON ISSN (print) 0093-4666 (online) 2154-8889 Mycotaxon, Ltd. ©2017 July–September 2017—Volume 132, pp. 635–642 https://doi.org/10.5248/132.635 Tuber magnatum in Thailand, a first report from Asia Nakarin Suwannarach, Jaturong Kumla, Jomkwan Meerak & Saisamorn Lumyong* Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, Chiang Mai University, Chiang Mai, 50200, Thailand * Correspondence to: [email protected] Abstract—Specimens collected in Thailand have been identified as Tuber magnatum, based on morphology and phylogenetic analysis of the LSU and ITS sequences. A description and illustration are provided. This is the first record of this fungus from Asia. Key words—ascomycete, hypogeous fungi, taxonomy, white truffle Introduction Truffles (Tuber spp., Tuberaceae, Pezizales) are well known as the most expensive edible fungi in the world (Hall et al. 2003, 2007; Zambonelli et al. 2016). The Italian white truffle (T. magnatum), Périgord black truffle (T. melanosporum Vittad.), and summer truffle (T. aestivum Vittad.) are highly prized foods in Europe (Hall et al. 2007; Stobbe et al. 2013). In North America, Oregon white truffles (T. oregonense Trappe et al. and T. gibbosum Harkn.) are commercially harvested (Bonito et al. 2011). An Asian black truffle, T. indicum Cooke & Massee (the first Asian truffle reported from India; Cooke 1892), is one of the renowned commercial species in China (Mortimer et al. 2012). Since the 1980s, more than 20 new Tuber species have been discovered in China, Japan, and Taiwan (Liu & Liu 1994; Tao 1988; García-Montero et al. 2010; Fan et al. 2011a,b, 2012a,b, 2014, 2015; Fan & Cao 2012; Deng et al.
