"Tuber aestivum" and "Tuber uncinatum" are the two scientific genera introduced for Iranian Forest truffles. These tubers are commercial and very valuable and are found in the Hyrcanian forests region. To date, Iran seems to be the most Eastern location where European species of Tuber are found...
Desert truffles are distributed in Northwest, West, East and Southern of Iran, specially in uncultivated area with special soil physicochemical properties. Based on macroscopic, microscopic and molecular analysis, "Terfezia sp.", "Picoa sp." and "Tirmania sp." are common genus of desert truffles.
Truffles are generally considered to be all those fungi that form subterranean fruiting bodies and live in a symbiotic relationship with the roots of one or more host plants that are exceptionally popular in culinary circles worldwide; however, there remains only limited understanding of the occurrence of truffles in forest ecosystems around the world. These hypogeous fungi colonize the roots of dominant tree species such as oak, pine, Hazelnut tree, poplar, birch, or aspen creating a mutual symbiosis that has existed for approximately 120 million years. The ECM fungi provide the host tree with improved access to minerals and water and in response, the plant can convey up to one third of the photosynthetic ingredients to the fungus. The Spring season in Iran, especially the months of April and May, is a thriving season for the wild harvesting and sale of fresh medicinal plants and mushrooms that are seen in the form of local markets and seasonal stores during the rainy season. Based on habitats of Iranian truffles, they can be classified in two groups including "Forest truffles" and "Desert truffles".
We at "Metaffle" believe that its growth, awareness and expansion is one of the most important and perhaps the only duties of us humans. Achieving growth and awareness requires infrastructure, the most important of which is physical health. In this regard, one of the most important factors affecting physical health is healthy eating, and one of the factors affecting healthy eating is the consumption of organic food and the use of medicinal plants. Organic foods are foods that are not produced and processed using any chemicals, poisons, fertilizers, pesticides, or hormones. These foods have high nutritional value, better taste and strong antioxidant properties.
