Cover Story: Wild grapevine populations are quite limited mainly due to habitat destruction, land-use change, and the spread of pathogens that have reduced their distribution range. Nowadays, populations are concentrated in forests and wetland habitats with low anthropogenic disturbances. The River Crati Natural Reserve, in southern Italy, is a protected area hosting a population of Vitis vinifera subsp. sylvestris in a rewilding wet forest. The paper aims at characterising the wild grapevine population of the reserve by describing the age structure of natural populations, growth trends, pollen morphology, and the morphometric traits of male or female flowers. Palaeoecological perspectives must be incorporated in the modern vision of landscape management to improve the conservation strategies for relic grapevine populations. View this paper
