Sažetak
Truffles are natural symbiotic fungi on forest trees which develop in most forest ecosystems in Croatia. They draw special attention due to their gastronomic properties and high price. In Croatia truffles are most intensively collected in forests of Istria, even though they are known to exist also in other mediterranean and continental parts of Croatia up to 600 m above sea level. This paper presents new localities where truffles have been discovered in Croatia, as well as the data about truffle distribution in Europe. The truffle management in forest ecosystems of Croatia is not fully organized. The issues of sustainable truffle management in forests are the changing of ecological conditions, intensive and unorganized truffle collection and decrease of tree vitality. This paper discusses the most important unfavorable ecological and other factors for truffle development. Also, possibilities for improvement of truffle production in forests and truffle farms are presented, with special attention to habitat management.
