A survey of both ectomycorrhizal (ECM) root tips and fruiting bodies of ECM fungi was carried out during a four-year period (2009–2012) in two similar forest stands in central Italy, previously investigated in detail being habitats of the Italian white truffle Tuber magnatum Pico. | Turkish Journal of Botany Turk J Bot (2015) 39: 527-534 © TÜBİTAK doi:10.3906/bot-1406-50 http://journals.tubitak.gov.tr/botany/ Research Article Expanding the understanding of a forest ectomycorrhizal community by combining root tips and fruiting bodies: a case study of Tuber magnatum stands 1 1 1 1, Giorgio LALLI , Marco LEONARDI , Marilena ODDIS , Giovanni PACIONI *, 2 3 3 Elena SALERNI , Mirco IOTTI , Alessandra ZAMBONELLI 1 Department of Life, Health and Environmental Sciences, University of L’Aquila, L’Aquila, Italy 2 BIOCONNET, Department of Life Science, University of Siena, Siena, Italy 3 Department of Agricultural Sciences, University of Bologna, Bologna, Italy Received: 16.06.2014 Accepted: 11.12.2014 Published Online: 04.05.2015 Printed: 29.05.2015 Abstract: A survey of both ectomycorrhizal (ECM) root tips and fruiting bodies of ECM fungi was carried out during a four-year period (2009–2012) in two similar forest stands in central Italy, previously investigated in detail being habitats of the Italian white truffle Tuber magnatum Pico. This research is one of the few conducted in mixed forest stands and, for the first time, it took into account the cryptic fungi (corticiaceous, hypogeous, and sclerotia). This survey led to an exhaustive description of the ECM community by integrating all the 197 taxa recorded (147 species as fruiting bodies, 65 as ectomycorrhizas, and 15 overlapping taxa recorded by both systems), and it also revealed a discrepancy between the results obtained using these two different approaches. In fact, a prevalence of Russulaceae, Inocybaceae, and Cortinariaceae resulted from fruiting body observations, whereas Thelephoraceae and Sebacinaceae dominated the ECM root tips. This result suggests a probable flaw in the sampling methodology. There may be several causes of this phenomenon, including the different nutritional strategies of ectomycorrhizal fungi and their seasonal turnover. Some species that could be candidates as
