Description

Explore the complex world of desert truffles with this comprehensive scientific volume from Springer. As part of the Soil Biology series, this book examines how these unique organisms thrive in diverse environments, from cool to hot habitats and sandy to heavy soils. While they share names with true truffles, desert truffles have evolved across different families, primarily within the order Pezizales. This text provides an in-depth look at the biological and ecological aspects of these fungi. It covers their traditional use as food in arid regions and explains why global interest is growing. Readers will learn about their increasing importance as a source of nutrition, a potential income stream, and a subject for scientific research. Whether you are studying soil science or the biology of arid ecosystems, this volume offers a thorough overview of the phylogeny, physiology, and domestication of desert truffles.

Key Features
