Microalgal strains from the Culture Collection of Baltic Algae (CCBA)

Description

The dataset contains information on the cyanobacterial and microalgal strains maintained at the Culture Collection of Baltic Algae (CCBA) at the Institute of Oceanography UG. The collection maintains cyanobacterial and algal strains isolated from the Baltic Sea and additionally several strains collected from a wide range of habitats. The culture collection specializes in the Polish region and conducts continuous enlargement of the resources by addition of new isolates. The cultures are unialgal, but mostly non-axenic. Strains are available for research, educational and commercial purposes. The main research objectives of the collection include: (1) isolation of new strains from Baltic and Polish inland waters with special attention paid to algal species threatened by extinction, rare, harmful as well as typical of Polish region, (2) extension of the knowledge on algal biodiversity, and (3) investigation of different environmental factors to determine optimal conditions for algal growth. With the increasing interest in microalgal biomass as a high-quality resource material for biotechnology the role of culture collections is rising. Therefore, sharing information on the microalgal resources becomes an important task allowing for development of new eco-friendly technologies in various commercial sectors. 

The dataset provides:

  • basic information on the year and location of environmental samples from which strains were isolated and culturing conditions,
  • strain taxonomic affiliations,
  • information on available genetic data,

The dataset was prepared in agreement with the Darwin Core standard.
