This award renews support of the International Collection of Vesicular-Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (INVAM) at West Virginia University Research Collection. The collected fungi are soil-borne organisms that form mutualistic symbiotic associations with the roots of at least 80% of all terrestrial plant species. INVAM is the largest public collection of such fungi, with 1061 accessions at present. This award provides support to INVAM's continued operation of the collection. This includes characterization and preservation of collected germplasm , distribution of germplasm sources to user groups worldwide, centralization of information in an extensive Internet website, and education and training related to use and operation of the collection. In addition, this award will support the implementation of lyophilization and other long-term storage means to circumvent the use of serial culture.

该奖项重申了对西弗吉尼亚大学研究收藏馆的国际泡囊丛枝菌根真菌收藏（INVAM）的支持。所收集的真菌是土传生物，与至少80%的所有陆生植物物种的根形成互惠共生关系。INVAM是这类真菌最大的公共收藏，目前有1061份。该奖项为INVAM继续经营收藏提供了支持。这包括对收集的种质进行鉴定和保存，向全世界的用户群体分发种质资源，将信息集中在一个广泛的互联网网站上，以及与收集的使用和操作有关的教育和培训。此外，该奖项将支持实施冻干和其他长期储存手段，以避免使用连续培养。
