Metagenomic assessment provides a comprehensive survey of soil microbiota; however, isolation and characterization of functionally relevant microbiota are required prior to their application(s), such as for metal remediation. Toward this end, we report the availability of a culture collection comprising uranium (U)-resistant microbial assemblages (CURMA) to the scientific community.
