Mycorrhizal Systems Ltd. is a company founded on significant technological advances in the production of black truffles (Tuber melanosporum)

We believe our technique is one of the most technologically advanced, thorough and scientific methods currently employed to cultivate the black truffle. We also work with the Summer truffle (Tuber aestivum var. uncinatum)

Our production technique used for partnership plantations has the following benefits:
100% DNA-identified inoculums (if requested), high inoculation levels, large substrate levels and reduced contamination. Twinned with thorough monitoring our technique should lead to greater yields and increased harvest reliability.

    Some very exciting news- earlier this autumn we received photos from our welsh plantation showing a very distinct ‘brûlé’. A brûlé is a burnt-looking patch of ground, devoid of vegetation underneath the tree caused by the truffle fungus- these normally take several years to appear and signal imminent onset of fruiting of the truffle. This is particularly exciting as they have appeared on around 70-80% of trees planted last winter! With an average age of 9months (from planting), these results are every exciting indeed,
