  Whether the world's best truffles are found in Piedmont or Perigord, the effects of dwindling supply and insatiable demand for the elusive mushroom are unquestionable. This work describes the commercial species along with their host plants, habitats, cultivation, and maintenance, diseases, and harvesting with pigs, dogs, and truffle flies.
