Abstract

Brassicamontana Pourr., a wild relative of the Brassicaoleracea L. cole crops (broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, etc.), deserves special attention for its potential to easily transfer agronomically useful traits to related crops. Monitoring existing B.montana populations is the first step to enabling long-term conservation and management of wild genetic resources. The main distribution area of B.montana extends along the coasts of the northern Mediterranean Sea from north-east Spain to north-west Italy (coast of Liguria and Apuan Alps in Tuscany). Further east and south, the distribution of B.montana is fragmentary, with isolated populations, in some cases, only observed in the 19th or early 20th century and never re-confirmed later. In this paper, we focus on all the B.montana reports for the Italian regions of Emilia-Romagna and Marche, and additionally for the neighbouring Republic of San Marino. Literature records were verified through field visits where possible. According to our analysis, the presence of B.montana is confirmed in the Marche and the Republic of San Marino, but not in Emilia-Romagna. We recommend further studies on the distribution of B.montana in Italy, also applying molecular means, beyond morphology, to distinguish B.montana from naturalized B.oleracea and other related taxa.

蒙大拿油菜的发生。(芸苔科)生长于意大利的艾米利亚-罗马涅和马尔凯地区以及圣马力诺共和国

Brassicamontana Pourr。作为芸苔科(Brassicaoleracea L.)油菜科作物(西兰花、卷心菜、花椰菜等)的野生近缘种，它有可能很容易将有用的农艺性状转移到相关作物上，值得特别关注。监测现有的蒙大拿B.montana种群是实现野生遗传资源长期保护和管理的第一步。B.montana的主要分布区域沿地中海北部海岸从西班牙东北部延伸到意大利西北部(利古里亚海岸和托斯卡纳的阿普安阿尔卑斯山脉)。在更远的东部和南部，B.montana的分布是零碎的，在某些情况下，仅在19世纪或20世纪初观察到孤立的种群，后来从未再次证实。在本文中，我们重点关注意大利艾米利亚-罗马涅和马尔凯地区的所有b.m antana报告，以及邻近的圣马力诺共和国的报告。尽可能通过实地访问核实文献记录。根据我们的分析，B.montana在马尔凯和圣马力诺共和国被证实存在，但在艾米利亚-罗马涅没有。我们建议进一步研究蒙大拿b.m ana在意大利的分布，并采用分子手段，而不是形态学手段来区分蒙大拿b.m ana与归化的b.m ana和其他相关分类群。

期刊介绍： The journal is published on behalf of the Italian Botanical Society (www.societabotanicaitaliana.it). Founded in 1969 as Informatore Botanico Italiano, the journal was initially conceived as a place to publish proceedings of the Society, book reviews etc. During the years, however, the journal acquired scientific contents so that, in 2015, the Italian Botanical Society moved it to the Pensoft platform, with the new name Italian Botanist, in order to disseminate its contents more efficiently. It publishes original research covering all fields of Botany in its wider sense, from molecular to ecosystem levels, including Mycology. The geographical coverage of the journal is specially focused on the Italian territory, but studies from other areas are also welcome. It is a peer-reviewed, open-access, journal.
