The main task of the laboratory is to study the biodiversity of genetic resources of endosymbionts of cultivated and wild legumes, promising for practical use. To date, a unique collection of bacterial economically valuable strains has been created, which have a wide potential for use in various soil and climatic conditions of Russia. To expand the collection fund, laboratory staff participate in organizing and conducting research expeditions to various regions of the Russian Federation (Altai, Buryatia, Baikal Region, Kamchatka, Caucasus), including hard to rich and remote areas of the Arctic (Northern Yakutia, Chukotka, Putorana plateau).
The laboratory was created within the framework of the project "Mobilization of genetic resources of microorganisms on the basis of the Departmental Collection of beneficial microorganisms for agricultural Purposes (VKSM) at the Federal State Budgetary Budgetary Institution ARRIAM using the network principle of organization", implemented in accordance with the terms of Agreement No. 075-15-2021-1055 dated 09/28/2021. on granting a grant in the form of a subsidy from the federal budget to scientific organizations and educational organizations of higher education for the implementation of certain activities of the Federal Scientific and Technical Program for the Development of Genetic Technologies for 2019-2027.
The main task of the laboratory is to study the biodiversity of the genetic resources of endosymbionts of cultivated and wild leguminous plants that are promising for practical use. To date, a unique collection of economically valuable bacterial strains has been created, which have a wide potential for use in various soil and climatic conditions in Russia. To expand the collection fund, the laboratory staff participates in organizing and conducting research expeditions to various regions of the Russian Federation (Altai, Buryatia, the Baikal Region, Kamchatka, the Caucasus), including remote and inaccessible areas of the Arctic (Northern Yakutia, Chukotka, the Putorana Plateau).
MAIN RESEARCH DIRECTIONS
- organization and conduct of scientific research expeditions to various regions of the Russian Federation;
- search for bacterial economically valuable strains with a wide potential for use in various soil and climatic conditions of Russia;
- identification and phylogenetic analysis of new strains of microorganisms;
- genome-wide sequencing of microorganisms in order to search for economically valuable genetic loci;
- depositing selected strains into the Online Bioresource Collection in the field of genetic technologies for agriculture of the Federal State Budgetary Budgetary Institution VNIISHM.
