Introduction

Albania is an ancient hearth of grapevine cultivation and wine production, distinguished for the high variability of autochthonous grape populations. The favourable geographic position in the Mediterranean basin, close to the Adriatic and Ionian seas, the variable topographic and hydrologic features, its rich forest fauna and soil typologies, has made Albania a site of high diversity. The four wine cultivars under this study represent the most important ones originating from different parts of Albania.

Material and Methods

The study was conducted during the end of summer of 2010 and 2011. Mature leaves of Shesh i Zi, Shesh i Bardh, Kallmet and Vlosh cultivars were collected at the grapevine collection at the Agricultural Technology Transfer Centre of Vlora and private autochthonous vineyards in the area of origin of the above cultivars. Ten typical leaves were collected from ten random plants of each cultivar, avoiding leaves damaged by diseases and pests. The lower side of fresh leaves where veins are clearly visible, where scanned using a HP Scanjet 4400c scanner. Scanned leaves were analysed using SuperAmpelo is a program designed to help Vitis germplasm cataloguing. The software, developed in Microsoft Visual Studio.Net and compatible also with Microsoft Access 2000 Data Base, allows to measure leaves, clusters, berries, and seeds, and to record the main descriptive ampelographic characters. Main carpometric indices were also measured.

Discussions and Conclusions

Autochthonous cultivars are part of the natural and environmental heritage and represent a valuable instrument for improving the local economies. They risk to disappear (genetic erosion), mainly due to the competition with international cultivars. Beside the characterisation of the diversity by characterising typical autochthonous cultivars, this study valorises this autochthonous heritage, a bench-mark in the road toward rural economic development. Results show a high inter- and intra-tree variation which is attributable to the high leaf dimorphism which characterises grapevine. This is also an indication for the need to carry out proper formal homologation of these cultivars to maintain their genetic trueto-type. This description completes and makes more accurate existing ampelographic descriptions found in literature. This is part of the valorisation efforts for our local grapevine cultivars.
