Three-Day Programme for Active Tourists THREE-DAY PROGRAMME FOR ACTIVE TOURISTS The Soča, picturesque nature, rich cultural heritage, and hills and valleys offer a wide variety of possibilities for all those who like to be creative during their well-deserved holidays.

It is a place where you can explore WWI trenches and caverns, visit the crypt of the last kings of France or take a ride on the biking trails.

  • Origin and Relationships of Astragalus Vesicarius Subsp. Pastellianus (Fabaceae) from the Vinschgau Valley (Val Venosta, Italy)
    Gredleriana Vol. 9 / 2009 pp. 119- 134 Origin and relationships of Astragalus vesicarius subsp. pastellianus (Fabaceae) from the Vinschgau Valley (Val Venosta, Italy) Elke Zippel & Thomas Wilhalm Abstract Astragalus vesicarius subsp. pastellianus is present in the most xerothermic parts of the Italian Alps at a few localized sites. Two populations are known from the Adige region, one at the locus classicus at Monte Pastello (lower Adige, Lessin Mountains) and another in the Vinschgau Valley (upper Adige), and there is a further population 250 km westwards in the Aosta Valley. The relationships of this taxon were investigated with molecular sequencing and fingerprinting methods.Astragalus vesicarius subsp. pastellianus shows a clear genetic differentiation in a Western and an Eastern lineage as it is known from several other alpine and subalpine species. The population at Monte Pastello is closely related to the populations in the Aosta Valley and to the subspecies vesicarius from the French Alps, whereas the populations from the Vinschgau Valley (South Tyrol) belong to the Eastern lineage, together with the subspecies carniolicus from the Julian Alps. Therefore, the origin of the Vinschgau populations seems to be in Eastern refugia and not in the open Southern Adige Valley which would be plausible from a geographical point of view. Keywords: Astragalus vesicarius subsp. pastellianus, phylogeography, AFLP, nuclear and chloroplast marker, South Tyrol, Southern Alps, Italy 1. Introduction One of the rarest plant taxa in the Alps is Astragalus vesicarius subsp. pastellianus (Pollini) Arcangeli. It was first described by POLLINI (1816) from Monte Pastello in the Lessin Mountains between Verona and Lake Garda (Northern Italy) and is currently known from a few disjunct locations in the Italian Alps such as the locus classicus at Monte Pastello, and two inner alpine valleys, the Vinschgau Valley (Valle Venosta) and the Aosta Valley (Valle d’Aosta), as well as from the Maurienne in the French Alps.
