The FGSC, which began as a specialized repository for Neurospora and Aspergillus mutants, has grown to hold over 16,000 fungal strains as well as a variety of molecular genetics tools. The FGSC has expanded to include a variety of different fungi including Magnaporthe and Fusarium and is part of the Magnaporthe genome and knockout projects. The FGSC serves as a central clearing house for information in fungal genetics and has a role in facilitating the meetings of the Neurospora and fungal genetics communities. The FGSC is a model for the development of a culture collection much as Neurospora serves as a model organism.
真菌遗传储存中心（FGSC）起初是作为粗糙脉孢菌和曲霉菌突变体的专门储存库，现已发展到拥有超过16000种真菌菌株以及各种分子遗传学工具。FGSC已扩展到包括稻瘟病菌和镰刀菌等多种不同真菌，并且是稻瘟病菌基因组和基因敲除项目的一部分。FGSC作为真菌遗传学信息的中央信息交换中心，在促进粗糙脉孢菌和真菌遗传学领域的会议方面发挥着作用。FGSC是培养物保藏中心发展的一个典范，就如同粗糙脉孢菌是一种模式生物一样。
