Description
The CNR-IBBA-MLIP collection preserves fungal, microalgal and bacterial strains, mainly isolated from the Mediterranean agro-food and natural systems. It contains in vivo and in vitro cultures of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal (AMF) isolates, endophytic bacteria from Canapa sp., Psoralea sp., phycospheric and mycorrhizospheric/rhizospheric bacteria. Long-term cryopreservation: frezeer at -80 °C and -20 °C, in cryovials with 20% glycerol. Fresh cultures: refrigerator at 4 °C in vials with (i) roots/spore suspensions from in vitro AMF cultures, (ii) roots/spores/mycelium in soil from in vivo AMF cultures, (iii) vials/plates streaks of bacterial isolates on agar media. Microalgal strains are maintained under controlled light and temperature condition in a growth chamber, both as liquid culture and in agar plates for long storage.
