Many trees live in strict symbiosiswithectomycorrhizalfungithatareimportantforecosystems’function- ing. Some ectomycorrhizal species, such as boletes and truffles, are also famous becausetheyformediblefructifications,andtrufflesbelongingtotheTubergenus, the so-called “true truffles,” are gourmet delicacies worldwide. The genus Tuber includesaround180species,mostofwhicharenaturallydistributedinthenorthern hemisphere. Some Tuber species, such as Tuber magnatum (the Italian white truffle), T. melanosporum (the Perigord black truffle), T. aestivum (the Burgundy truffle),andT.borchii(thebianchettotruffle),arethemosteconomicallyimportant fungi, but other Tuber species are edible and locally appreciated as well. Besides their economic and culinary importance, many truffle species play a key role in forest ecosystems, including disturbed forests, where they are often common ectomycorrhizal symbionts. Moreover, the cultivation of some truffle species such as T. melanosporum and T. aestivum has spread worldwide in the last two decades and has diversified crops and incomes for local farmers. In this context, manybookshavebeenwrittenontruffles,butmostoftheminFrenchandItalian,or theyarefocusedonafewspeciesorspecificaspects. Inthisbook,wedecidedtocovermuchofthetaxonomicdiversityofthegenus Tuber, in addition to economically important species, and include information generated from more recent technological innovations (e.g., second-generation DNA sequencing). The book is divided into five parts and comprises chapters written by experienced and internationally recognized scientists. The aim is to provide an inventory of the knowledge on truffle systematics, interactions with abiotic and biotic environments, strategies for spore dispersal, and biochemistry. Suchmultidisciplinaryapproachprovidesauniqueinsightandabetterunderstand- ing of the truffle ecology and the role these fungi play in natural and managed ecosystems. v vi Preface Wearegratefultothemanyscientistswhogenerouslyassistedusinwritingand reviewingthecontentofthisbook.Itwouldbetoolongtociteallthecontributors, but we would like to highlight all the corresponding authors of the chapters: Antonella Amicucci, Elena Barbieri, Niccolo` Benucci, Gregory Bonito, Gilberto Bragato, Zoltan Bratek, Milan Gryndler, Benoit Jaillard, Chen Juan, Enrico Lancellotti,Franc¸oisLeTacon,FrancisMartin,CristinaMenta,VirginieMolinier, Giovanni Pacioni, Francesco Paolocci, Xavier Parlade´, Federica Piattoni, Claudio Ratti,ChristopheRobin,MatthewSmith,RichardSplivallo,andAlexanderUrban. Peer review by contributors to this volume and by external internationally recognized scientists helped to maintain the rigor and high quality of material presented. We would like to thank especially all the colleagues who helped us in reviewing the chapters: Antonella Amicucci, Niccolo` Benucci, Gilberto Bragato, Aure´lie Deveau, Lorenzo Gardin, Milan Gryndler, Ian Hall, Benoit Jaillard, AnnegretKohler,VirginieMolinier,GiovanniPacioni,FrancescoPaolocci,Xavier Parlade´,FedericaPiattoni,MariaAgneseSabatini,ElenaSalerni,MassimoTurina, GiulianoVitali,andYunWang.WearealsogratefultoJoeySpataforawhokindly revisedthisPreface. We would like also to thank Ajit Varma, series editor, who gave us this great opportunity, Jutta Linderborn, Editor Life Science of Springer, and Sumathy Thanigaivelu,fortheirhelpandpatienceinrespondingtoallthequeriesregarding the preparation of the book and for giving us the opportunity to include the color picturesprovided. Wehopethisbookwillserveasaprimaryresearchreferenceforresearchersand researchmanagersinterestedinmycology,ecology,andsoilsciences.Ouraimwas also to provide a reference book for farmers and foresters who are interested in truffle cultivation worldwide. We are convinced that truffles deserve to be pre- served in the context of climate change in order to maintain biodiversity and ecosystem functioning but also to allow future generations to appreciate these uniquenaturalresources.
