“…Even though the species in the maculatum clade are not highly appreciated due to their inconspicuous taste and smell, some species such as T. miquinuanense could be commercialized (Guevara-Guerrero et al 2022). Most of the species within this clade are associated with trees of the genera Abies, Carya, Pinus and Quercus (Sánchez-Ledezma et al 2023). With the addition of the new species described in this study, a total of 26 species belonging to the genus Tuber have been reported from Mexico, mostly distributed in northeastern Mexico (Figure 3).…”

Tuber itzcuinzapotl is described as a new species to science. This species is characterized by its pale brown ascomata, finely granular peridium, pale brown to gray gleba, and 22–52 × 15–40 µm alveolate ascospores. The new species is putatively associated with Pinus patula in conifer mixed forests in the state of Veracruz, located in eastern Mexico. Phylogenetic analysis based on the nrITS region places the new species in the Maculatum clade, closely related, but morphologically distinctive, to T. miquihuanense and T. mexiusanum. The new species consumed by the Nahua people, traditionally named “Itzcuinzapotl”, constitutes the first edible truffle with biocultural importance in Mexico. Macro- and micromorphological characterization, results of phylogenetic analysis, and photographs are presented. Ethnomycological aspects related to the species are also briefly discussed.

Los agroecosistemas, como los cultivos de Carya illinoinensis (nogal pecanero), representan una actividad económica importante y de constante crecimiento en La Comarca Lagunera, México. La mayor parte de los macromicetos que se asocian con el nogal pecanero se distribuyen en los primeros horizontes del suelo y la rizosfera de las plantas. Para recolectar los macromicetos asociados al nogal se realizaron recorridos 2 veces por semana, de mayo a octubre de 2018, cubriendo en total 25 ha de una huerta en La Comarca Lagunera, México. A los hongos recolectados se les secuenció la región ITS del ADN ribosomal para corroborar su identificación taxonómica por medio de análisis filogenéticos de máxima verosimilitud y bayesianos. Se encontraron 5 taxones asociados al nogal pecanero, 4 identificados a nivel de especie (Agaricus deserticola, Candolleomyces luteopallidus, Tuber caryophilum y Scleroderma cepa s.l.) y una especie potencialmente nueva (Candolleomyces sp.). De éstos, C. luteopallidus se registra por primera vez en México. Se discute la importancia de la diversidad de los hongos en este sistema agroforestal ya que los hongos saprobios descomponen la materia orgánica y los ectomicorrízicos transfieren macro y micronutrientes esenciales para el crecimiento y productividad del nogal.

Although only a few species of Tuber account for the major truffle sales volume, many species that are not considered delicacies are finding their way to the market, especially in regions where the traditionally appreciated ones do not occur. This is the case for whitish truffles. Specimens of whitish truffles were collected in pecan (Carya illinoinensis) orchards in Uruguay in October 2021. Morphological and molecular methods were used to characterize and assess their identity as Tuber maculatum Vittad. An SPME extraction of volatile compounds and GC–MS analyses were performed to characterize the aromatic profile of these specimens and evaluate their potential applications. Among the 60 VOCs detected, 3-octenone (mushroom odor), 3-octanol (moss, nut, mushroom odor), and 2H-pyran-2-one (no odor), followed by octen-1-ol-acetate (no odor) and 2-undecanone (orange, fresh, green odor) were the major compounds in T. maculatum fruiting bodies. The attributes of exotic edible mushrooms of commercial value in the region are highlighted. In particular, this work emphasizes the characteristics of truffles as a byproduct of pecan cultivation.
