AB  - Truffle diversity of Balkan Peninsula does not stop to surprise the scientific community with three new species from the melanosporum clade described in last year's (Mereny et al 2017, Milenković at al 2015,  Slavova et al 2023). Out of large set of ITS sequences,  Mereny at al. (2017) described T. cryptobrumale as connected to Pannonian region, but two other genetically quite distinctive populations were not distinguished as species. In this contribution, we have analyzed larger set of sequences and their habitats and detected strong connection between specimens with specific ITS/LSU region variants to ecologically specific habitats of Balkan peninsula. Soils and vegetation where these specimens have been detected rather resemble descriptions of T. melanosporum sites in Italy, while habitats of T. cryptobrumale resemble those of T. magnatum. Additionally, we have detected numerous populations of T. melanosporum in the coastal regions of Croatia, while this species has never been officially detected eastern from Dinaric alps in Balkan peninsula. We hypothesize that T. melanosporum could never overcome low temperatures of high and long Dinaric massive and is therefore localized in the western Mediterranean regions. This could be the reason why the melanosporum clade has been highly diversifying in Balkan regions. Moreover, the genetic variant widely distributed all over Europe and described as “T. brumale” has never been detected in the Balkans. Therefore, we propose that ecologically and genetically specific taxon that is widespread only in Balkan peninsula (and to some extent northwards) should be recognized as a different species - Tuber balkanicum.

AB  - Dioscorea balcanica Košanin, family Dioscoreaceae, is an endemic,
endangered liana species and a Tertiary relict of Balkan Peninsula. Gelatinous fibers,
specialized sclerenchyma cells and well-known components of tension wood, are
responsible for stem twining in liana plants. The aim of this investigation was to
determine changes in sclerenchyma cell walls correlated with the twining process in
liana plants. Our results showed that the differences in cell walls of sclerenchyma cells
between straight and twisted internodes are not visible by light microscopy, but they
are visible by SEM microscopy. In twisted internodes, cell walls of sclerenchyma cells
in the region of contact with the support (‘‘tension’’ side of twisted internodes) appear
smooth on the cross sections, suggesting cellulose microfibrils oriented almost
parallel to the fiber axis. In contrast, cell walls of the entire ring of sclerenchyma cells
in straight internodes, as well as cell walls of sclerenchyma cells on the “opposite”
side of twisted internodes, appear jagged on the cross sections, suggesting cellulose
microfibrils oriented at very high microfibril angle to the fiber axis. This result
suggests that gelatinous fibers in D. balcanica stem have lignified G-layer, and thus
could contribute to the understanding of ‘‘late lignification of the G-layer’’.
