Description
Summary:Tuber foetidum, a white truffle belonging to the T. macrosporum group, is confirmed from Finland based on morphological and DNA analyses. The Finnish specimen was found in soil with relatively high pH in coniferous forest. The phylogenetic tree based on nuclear ribosomal ITS sequences indicated that the Finnish material is most similar to, but not identical with, Tuber foetidum samples from Hungary and Estonia.
