Kubectl : How to create manifest of persistentvolume from command line?

Is it possible to create (start the manifest) of a pv/pvc from command line?

ie. Creating a deployment

kubectl create deployment abc --image=logger:1 --dry-run=client -o yaml > abc.yml

ie. Creating a pod

kubectl run pod xyz --image=logger:1 --dry-run=client -o yaml > xyz.yml

What I'm trying to do

kubectl create persitentvolume --name my-pv spec.capacity.storage=1Gi --dry-run=client -o yaml > my-pv.yml

We cannot create the manifest file for `pv` using the command line. For only the following objects created using the command line(imperatively) is possible. 

     --->kubectl create [press tab] [press tab] 
    clusterrole          cronjob              namespace            quota                secret               
    clusterrolebinding   deployment           poddisruptionbudget  role                 service              
    configmap            job                  priorityclass        rolebinding          serviceaccount

or you can use --help with kubectl create to check the available options.

Available Commands:
  clusterrole           Create a cluster role
  clusterrolebinding    Create a cluster role binding for a particular cluster role
  configmap             Create a config map from a local file, directory or literal value

  priorityclass         Create a priority class with the specified name
