Ecological aspects of the arid and semi-arid truffle in Turkey: Evaluation of soil characteristics, morphology, distribution, and mycorrhizal relationships

We undertook an evaluation of the physical and chemical quality of soil characteristics, micro- and macroscopic features of morphology, distribution, and mycorrhizal relationships of Terfezia boudieri Chatin. In conclusion, the habitats of T. boudieri and H. salicifolium should be protected by turning those fields into natural protected areas.
