K. Margaryan; Reinhard Töpfer; Boris Gasparyan; Arsen Arakelyan; Oliver Trapp; Franco Röckel, and Erika Maul · 2023

Catalogue summary

Researchers sampled wild grape populations across Armenia and used genetic markers to characterize diversity, population structure, and variants associated with powdery-mildew resistance.

Why this matters

The dataset highlights Armenia as a reservoir of viticultural biodiversity with potential value for crop resilience, breeding, conservation, and the study of longstanding wine landscapes.
