Environmental conditions influence the biochemical properties of the fruiting bodies of Tuber magnatum Pico

Abstract The influences of various factors, including the symbiosis established with the roots of specific tree species, on the production of volatiles in the fruiting bodies of Tuber magnatum have not been investigated yet. Volatiles in T. magnatum fruiting bodies were quantitatively and qualitativ...
