Educational gardens offer a teaching tool addressing the production, processing, and consumption of foods and their environmental impact, with a high potential for raising public awareness and spreading environmentally and climate-friendly gardening ideas and practices. They may be gardens located in educational institutions that provide garden-based learning to their community (schools, kindergartens, etc.), or gardens developed by environmental or social centres that offer educational services to visitors. School gardens are the most common form. (Lohrberg, Frank & Licka, Lilli & Scazzosi, Lionella & Timpe, Axel. (2015).

Partitiviridae is a family of small, isometric, non-enveloped viruses with bisegmented dsRNA genomes of 3–4.8 kbp. Partitiviruses are transmitted intracellularly via seeds (plants), oocysts (protozoa) or hyphal anastomosis, cell division and sporogenesis (fungi); there are no known natural vectors. (Vainio et al., (2018): ICTV Virus Taxonomy Profile: Partitiviridae, Journal of General Virology, 99:17–18. https://ictv.global/report/chapter/partitiviridae/partitiviridae)
