The Fungi Information System (SIF) is an open database that collects surveys and data submitted by contributors participating in the network. The interactive map viewer allows users to explore the locations of surveys recorded in the SIF, including field surveys, historical surveys, and data related to samples sent to the fungarium.
In this video, Alessandra Matteini, curator of the AGMT Herbarium, shares the work carried out in preserving over 14,000 fungal specimens and discusses the agreement between the AGMT Herbarium and ISPRA. This collaboration enables the genetic analysis of fungal specimens to enrich genetic databases and promote the knowledge and appreciation of fungal heritage.
The Network for the Study of Mycological Diversity is actively conducting surveys to improve its initiatives. Explore the results of completed surveys and take part in ongoing ones to contribute with your expertise.
