Description
The Medicinal Herb Garden (also known as "Giardino dei Semplici") is a botanic collection of more than 100 living plant species, primarily officinal and wild edible (alimurgic) plants. The collection aims to preserve local biodiversity and disseminate knowledge on botany sciences and medicinal plants. It also promotes pharmacological and phytosanitary research to deepen and apply knowledge about the biological properties of herbs and their extracts. Medicinal and wild edible plants are conserved, whose main taxa are dicots, monocots and Ginkgoopsida. Lamiaceae, Asteraceae, Brassicaceae, Myrtaceae, Apiaceae, Caryophyllaceae, Rosaceae, and Plantaginaceae are the main represented families. The main purposes of the collection are: preservation and cultivation; transcriptional and metabolic characterisation; active principles and essential oils extraction; biochemical characterization; pharmacological and phytochemical studies.

Project

ITINERIS - Italian Integrated Environmental Research Infrastructures System / BIOMEMORY

Identifier: PNRR Project IR0000032 | CNR SAC.AD002.173

Content: ITINERIS (PNRR Project IR0000032) Activity 6.5 "Mining and mapping the functional biodiversity in vivo and ex-situ research collections" - This activity is aimed to provide biodiversity (meta)data linked to Natural Science Collections (NSC). Extended digital specimens will be linked to related information (e.g.. images and videos, codification of functional traits, DNA and protein sequences, environmental parameters, etc.) in the frame of a national network of biological research collections, including all the existing in vivo and ex-situ collections of biological organisms (animals, plants, fungi, algae, archaea, bacteria, viruses, etc.) which have been created and maintained through past and current research projects. Reference to genetic/genomic data for each specimen will allow for the identification of the most interesting material for further genetic/genomic analysis. Bio Memory (CNR-DiSBA Project No. SAC.AD002.173) is the network of biological collections of the Department of Biology, Agriculture and Food Sciences (DiSBA) of the National Research Council of Italy (CNR) for bio-monitoring, biodiversity conservation, agri-food and environmental sustainability, and human well-being. The project is aimed to create a network of biobanks (i.e., scientific research collections) where data and metadata associated to biological samples of different nature are collected and stored in a systematic and well-organized way. Maintaining the existing collections will allow their future use for a number of purposes, from the genetic improvement of organisms to face environmental changes (climate-ready organisms) to the fight against epidemics and pandemics affecting humans, animals and plants.
