The Canadian Collection of Fungal Cultures (CCFC) currently holds 10,500 strains of fungal cultures representing about 2,500 species. The collection originated as an amalgamation of individual research collections and now serves as the primary repository for fungal cultures in the Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada Research Branch and accepts patent strains. It functions as a gene bank for this microbial resource and provides pure cultures to scientists in agriculture, forestry, medicine, private industry and biotechnology. Many species held in the collection are unique, and a number are new to science.

OBS

La Collection de cultures fongiques canadiennes (CCFC) contient environ 10 500 souches de cultures fongiques représentant environ 2 500 espèces. La collection résulte de la consolidation graduelle de plusieurs collections de recherche individuelle. Elle est maintenant le dépôt principal de cultures fongiques de la Direction générale de la recherche d'Agriculture et Agro-alimentaire Canada et accepte en dépôt les lignées brevetées. Elle a aussi le mandat de banque de gènes pour les ressources génétiques microbiennes et fournit des cultures pures aux chercheurs en agriculture, foresterie, médecine, biotechnologie, tant du secteur privé que public. Plusieurs des échantillons de la collection sont des unicats et plusieurs sont nouveaux pour la science.
