Boletus Reticulatus
''Boletus reticulatus'' (alternately known as ''Boletus aestivalis'' (Paulet) Fr.), and commonly referred to as the summer cep is a basidiomycete fungus of the genus ''Boletus''. It occurs in deciduous forests of Europe where it forms a symbiotic mycorrhizal relationship with species of oak (''Quercus''). The fungus produces fruiting bodies in the summer months which are edible and popularly collected. The summer cep was formally described by Jacob Christian Schäffer as ''Boletus reticulatus'' in 1774, which took precedence over ''B. aestivalis'' as described by Jean-Jacques Paulet in 1793. Taxonomy German naturalist Jacob Christian Schäffer described the summer cep as ''Boletus reticulatus'' in 1774, in his series on fungi of Bavaria and the Palatinate, ''Fungorum qui in Bavaria et Palatinatu circa Ratisbonam nascuntur icones.'' French mycologist Jean-Jacques Paulet described it as Le grand Mousseux (''Tubiporus aestivalis'') in 1793, adding that it was delicious with chic ...

Kilocalorie
The calorie is a unit of energy. For historical reasons, two main definitions of "calorie" are in wide use. The large calorie, food calorie, or kilogram calorie was originally defined as the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of one kilogram of water by one degree Celsius (or one kelvin). The small calorie or gram calorie was defined as the amount of heat needed to cause the same increase in one gram of water. Thus, 1 large calorie is equal to 1000 small calories. In nutrition and food science, the term ''calorie'' and the symbol ''cal'' almost always refers to the large unit. It is generally used in publications and package labels to express the energy value of foods in per serving or per weight, recommended dietary caloric intake, metabolic rates, etc. Some authors recommend the spelling ''Calorie'' and the symbol ''Cal'' (both with a capital C) to avoid confusion; however, this convention is often ignored. In physics and chemistry the word ''calorie'' and i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
