In continuation of collecting activities in the last six years a further mission has been carried out in South Italy jointly by staff members of the Instituto del Germoplasma, Bari, and the Zentralinstitut fuer Genetik und Kulturpflanzenforschung, Gatersleben, in September 1986 for exploring and collecting plant genetic resources. In this year South-eastern parts of Calabria and the Isole Egadi have been covered. 90 samples, mainly of vegetables, grain legumes and some cereals, could be collected. The material represents variable land-races and wild relatives of crop plants. From the last group Brassica, Beta and some wild cereals, as Secale, Aegilops and Dasypyrum, should be mentioned. With this mission the exploration of South Italy is nearly completed. Further activities will concentrate to some selected regions.

Abstract
In continuation of collecting activities in the last six years a further mission has been carried out in South Italy jointly by staff members of the Instituto del Germoplasma, Bari, and the Zentralinstitut fuer Genetik und Kulturpflanzenforschung, Gatersleben, in September 1986 for exploring and collecting plant genetic resources. In this year South-eastern parts of Calabria and the Isole Egadi have been covered. 90 samples, mainly of vegetables, grain legumes and some cereals, could be collected. The material represents variable land-races and wild relatives of crop plants. From the last group Brassica, Beta and some wild cereals, as Secale, Aegilops and Dasypyrum, should be mentioned. With this mission the exploration of South Italy is nearly completed. Further activities will concentrate to some selected regions.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
