| Research Abstract |
In this study, I estimated the diversity of undiscovered fungal taxa in Japan that forms fruit bodies at underground as truffles and I also made the cultures to conserve genetic resources. I collected nearly 200 fruit body samples with the help of volunteers and analyzed the ribosomal DNA. So far, four genera and 20 species has been identified, and almost all of which are assumed to be new species. Moreover, some Japanese species have unique phylogenetic characters compared to the known species reported from oversea areas. These are also keeping as cultures and dried specimen. I published these outcomes through academic articles, academic meetings and a magazine for general public.
