Acknowledgments The first author thanks Sir David Read for the valuable support to obtain
very valuable field and bibliographic information during a sabbatical stay in the University of
Sheffield, UK from 2011 to 2012. Wan Yung, Alexis Guerin-Laguette, Mario Honrubia, Lahsen
Khabar, Roberto Flores Arzú, and Kurt Haselwandter are also acknowledged for their kind
support to obtain field information in different regions of China, Spain, Morocco, Guatemala, and
Italy, priceless for the writing of the present chapter. Figures 6.2, 6.3, and 6.5 are from Lucila
Aragón-Carrillo from Estudio Azul, Jorge Manuel Mejía-Bojorquez, and Angeles RodríguezElizalde, respectively. Financial support from the Project SEP-CONACyT 2013 ‘‘Importancia de
los hongos ectomicorrízicos comestibles en el cambio climático y el desarrollo forestal sustentable’’ is acknowledged.
