Abstract

‘Verdello’, ‘Verdicchio’ and ‘Verduschia’ are registered in the official Italian Catalogue as three distinct grapevine varieties. Twenty-five accessions of these cultivars, encompassing known or presumed synonyms, coming from CRA repositories and from vineyards where they are traditionally cultivated, have been genotyped with eleven SSR markers. For morphological comparison, one accession for each variety has been described with 57 characters of OIV 2009 list; phenological and yield traits have also been recorded. In addition, the phenotypic comparison has been extended to the literature descriptions. The same DNA profile has been obtained for all 25 accessions; moreover, present and historical ampelographic data showed a very high similarity. All this information leads to the conclusion that these three varieties are, in fact, the same cultivar.
