摘要:The study presents an updated overview of the 14 non-endemic threatened crop wild relatives (CWR) in Italy: <i>Aegilops </i><i>biuncialis</i>, <i>Ae. </i><i>uniaristata</i>, <i>Ae. </i><i>ventricosa</i>, <i>Asparagus </i><i>pastorianus</i>, <i>Beta macrocarpa</i>, <i>Brassica </i><i>insularis</i>, <i>B. </i><i>montana</i>, <i>Crambe</i><i> </i><i>hispanica</i> subsp. <i>hispanica</i>, <i>C. </i><i>tataria</i> subsp. <i>tataria</i>, <i>Ipomoea </i><i>sagittata</i>, <i>Lathyrus </i><i>amphicarpos</i>, <i>L. palustris</i>, <i>Vicia </i><i>cusnae</i> and <i>V. </i><i>serinica</i>. Geographical distribution, ecology (with plant communities and habitat 92/43/EEC aspects), genetics (focused on gene pools), property, and in situ and ex situ conservation were analyzed. In addition, with the aim of their protection and valorization, specific actions are recommended.
