Description: PLAVIT Collection preserves more than 1100 isolates (Plant Viruses, Viroids, Bacteriophages) collected mainly in Italy but also from other countries (Europe, Asia, Africa, and America), including 134 distinct viral species belonging to the main taxonomic groups. A limited number of non-mechanically transmissible viral species are stored as infectious clones at - 80° C. Preservation Techniques: (i) Dried leaves: lyophilized infected leaves are stored at -20°C; (ii) Liquid Nitrogen: infected leaves are stored in liquid nitrogen. The PLAVIT collection is partner of MIRRI Italian Node (http://www.mirri-it.it) and partner of H2020 EU project EVA-GLOBAL (https://www.european-virus-archive.com). Since 2015, It is also member of ECCO (European Culture Collection Organization) and of WFCC (World Federation of Culture Collection - number 1057).
