originated from the hybridization of western Asian-domesticated table grapes and local wild relatives, according to new research led by University of Udine scientists.
“The cultivation of domesticated grapes dates back 4,000 years in the eastern Mediterranean and 2,000 years in Western Europe, with vegetative propagation becoming more and more prevalent as a mode of reproduction to preserve the genetic identity of valuable accessions that may have arisen from spontaneous crosses.”
In order to elucidate the still controversial processes that originated European wine grapes from its wild progenitor, the researchers analyzed the genomes of 204They suggest that the grapes originated from a single domestication event in western Asia, most likely in the South Caucasus, followed by multiple rounds of inter-breeding with the European wild grape population.
Additionally, the findings suggest that Italy and France have the most genetic diversity among their cultivated grapevines of the European countries included in samples.
