Abstract

The Fungal Genetics Stock Center has been banking and distributing resources for work with genetically characterized fungi since 1960. While most of the collection consists of strains of Neurospora, an NIH model filamentous fungus, the past fifteen years has seen the collection expand to include plant and human pathogenic fungi. The use of the resources in the collection has grown over the last 10 years as well, reflecting both a growth in research using standardized materials as well as the development of new materials through molecular genetic technology. This growth is not limited to newly deposited materials, however, and includes renewed interest in particular classes of strains with characteristics that were not recognized when they were originally deposited. One significant example is the use of strains carrying the osmotic-2 lesion in Neurospora crassa. This, and other utilization trends, underscores the need to provide strong support to the continued and expanded biobanking effort in the US.

真菌遗传资源库中心遗传资源展望。

自1960年以来，真菌遗传资源中心一直在为真菌遗传特征工作提供资金和资源分配。虽然大多数藏品由神经孢子菌菌株组成，这是一种NIH模型丝状真菌，但在过去的15年里，藏品扩大到包括植物和人类致病真菌。在过去的十年中，馆藏资源的使用也有所增长，这反映了使用标准化材料的研究的增长以及通过分子遗传技术开发新材料的增长。然而，这种增长并不局限于新沉积的材料，而且包括对具有最初沉积时未认识到的特征的特定类别的菌株重新产生兴趣。一个显著的例子是在粗神经孢子虫中使用携带渗透性-2病变的菌株。这一点，以及其他利用趋势，强调了为美国持续和扩大生物银行工作提供强有力支持的必要性。本作品采用知识共享署名-相同方式共享4.0许可协议。这篇常规论文可在真菌遗传学报告:http://newprairiepress.org/fgr/vol55/iss1/5
