The CNR-IPSP-FTFC collection cryo-preserves about 1000 private strains for research purposes. The strains are mainly isolated from the Mediterranean Forests and from cypress species around the world. Main taxa: Large variety of ascomycetous fungi, some basidiomycetes, characterized as pathogens of forest trees (Seiridium spp., Diplodia spp., Pestalotiopsis spp., Armillaria spp., Heterobasidion abietinum, Cryphonectria parasitica). A second core of collection is composed by 35 strains of Trichoderma spp. and Clonostachys rosea, characterized as Biocontrol Agents (BCA). Some basidiomycetes used for trials on mycelium-based biomaterial (Pleurotus ostreatus, Phomitopsis pinicola, Ganoderma lucidum, Trametes versicolor). One strain of the oomycetes Phytophthora cambivora and one of P. cinnamomi are also available. Distribution of strains for research purposes is available. Preservation techniques - Cryoconservation: Freezer at -20°C, in cryovials with spore suspension or with mycelium plug in water glycerol (50% v/V) or in pure water. Fresh cultures: Refrigerator at 4°C in agar slants with mycelium.
