Abstract

Today in Istria there are no matriculair plantations of old autochthonous cultivars. Therefore the plantation of vineyards depends upon foreign nursery’s. In new vineyard plantations clones not selected in Croatia are planted what causes variety and grape production uniformity. Because of large consequences that clone selection has on viticulture production a scientific research activity
was started with in order to identify and preserve autochthonous varieties in Istra, and establishing matriculair plantations of old varieties. Research started in 2003., in about fifty vineyards throughout Istria peninsula. We detected old varieties wine stocks. Based upon gathered material we separated several vineyards with different biotypes of different grape varieties. Marked biotypes were as folowing white ones: Guštana, Malvazija istarska bijela, Pergola, Puškavac bijeli, and black ones; Bontempo crni, Borgonja, Hrvatica, Manjakan. Viticultural features were measured according
to OIV indicators and sanitary control was pursued to viruses’ presence.
