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.
Geographic Coverage: Italy, Albania, Syria, Canada, USA

Glomeromycotan fungi, Bacteria mainly belonging to Bacillaceae, Pseudomonadaceae, Actinobacteria, Xanthomonadaceae, Microalgal strains mainly belonging to Chlorella-Micractinium clade and Chlamydomonas sp.

Description: The CNR-IBBA-MIDW collection have recently incorporated the renowned Landolt’s duckweed collection, preserving about 600 duckweed clones from the five continents. All the worldwide recognized genera and species are included representing the wide distribution characterizing this family of small aquatic plants. All clones are constantly in-vitro cultivated and preserved. Five genera of Lemnaceae (Spirodela, Lemna, Landoltia, Wolffia and Wolffiella) belonging to 37 species are included. Fresh culture; in vitro culture preservation on agarized, semi-solid and liquid media. Seeds can be rarely obtained in vitro.
Geographic Coverage: Worldwide
Taxonomic Coverage: Araceae Lemnoideae (genera Spirodela, Lemna, Landoltia, Wolffia and Wolffiella)
