Microbial collections (bacteria, fungi) and other beneficial EBCAs for IPM and selected PGPM/soil microorganisms

Summary
A number of collections of microorganisms proceeding from the sampling sites will be maintained at corresponding national partners. Sequence data produced for their identification will be made available on public databases (NCBI, EMBO). In case of species described as new for science a number of isolates will be deposited in public collections (CBS, DSMZ). Most promising isolates of PGPM/soil microorganisms, that will be distributed and used in field assays for PD and PPN management with stakeholders, including selected EBCAs for IPM of RKN and other nematodes based on P. chlamydosporia and/or soil bacteria or fungi and entomopathogenic fungi or antagonists for biocontrol field assays of BW.
