Description: The collection CNR-IBBR-MEPP is hosted at the CNR-IBBR in Palermo (Sicily, Italy) and preserves about 350 strains mainly isolated from the Mediterranean agro-food systems as well as from spontaneous perennial and herbaceous plants, Various microorganisms (bacteria, yeasts and fungi) of agro-food importance with pathological behaviour are included. Microrganisms are isolated from different Mediterranean geographical areas. CNR-IBBR-MEPP hosts also strains form collection of other Research centre or University. Main taxa are: culturable endophytic bacteria (mainly Pseudomonas, Erwinia Staphylococcus, Pantoea, Bacillus, Vibrio), actinomycetes (Streptomyces); some phytopathogenic filamentous fungi belonging to Botrytis, Neofabraea, Alternaria, Fusarium and Monilinia genera. Some strains are available for research purposes only.

Description: The CNR-IBBR-PPGR is an ex-situ field germplasm collection of perennial plants maintained at Collesano (Palermo, Sicily, Italy). The collection includes 220 accessions of Citrus relevant for their agronomic, historical and ornamental value, 40 accessions of Olea (natural and cultivated olive trees) and 480 accessions of Vitis (grapevine), all highly representative of the Mediterranean genetic resources. Several genotypes of Capparis sp.p., Zelkova sicula and Calendula maritima threatened of genetic erosion or extinction, are also maintained in the field. Several accessions are stored in in vitro culture and maintained in screen-house. Recently, a cryostorage program has been developed to preserve the genetic resources stored in the field. The main objective of the CNR-IBBR-PPGR collection is safeguarding the genetic resources of species of interest for Italian and Mediterranean agriculture.
