PRESIDIUM: A New, Heroic Title for Our Chapter’s Lively Potato Project Presidium (plural presidia): A protective fortress. A garrison, as in the San Francisco Presidio. From the Latin presidiare, to guard. In the fall of 2017, Slow Food launched the sixth Presidium in the USA: the Bodega Red Potato. Before Slow Food Sonoma County North intervened in 2006, the Bodega Red was on the brink of extinction. Now there are 13 local farms growing the potato. In March 2018 we distributed 2000 pounds of virus- free Bodega Red seed potatoes to local growers. Beginning with the first harvest in June, the potatoes have been available at Farmers’ Markets in Healdsburg, Santa Rosa, Sonoma Valley, and Cloverdale. These restaurants and others have served Bodega Reds: Brass Rabbit, Diavola, SHED, and Trading Post. Grower Zureal Bernier says, “These potatoes have gathered a very strong following, and we have no trouble selling out at premium prices. The quality is always great!” Slow Food around the world champions endangered traditional foods through its Ark of Taste and Presidia. The Ark of Taste is a list of fruits, vegetables, animal breeds, cheeses, breads, sweets, and cured meats at imminent risk of extinction. A Presidium takes this one step further by focusing on a single Ark product and working with producers to bring it into high-quality local production.

Animal genetic resources and animal management systems are an integral part of ecosystems and productive landscape in Italy, Europe and all over the world. Local breeds can be considered as a part of the history of some human populations as well as important materials from a scientific point of view. To date there is an urgent need of a specific conservation program for these breeds because of the limited number of their individuals and their risk of extinction. Although the local breeds are usually not competitive for production traits, they may carry valuable features such as disease resistance or distinctive product quality. The higher economic value of typical productions compared to conventional commercial products and the growing consumer preferences towards food quality, could strongly support the need to launch conservation programs of livestock biodiversity. In this regard, efficient in situ and ex situ conservation strategies are obligatory tools in order to implement an appropriate action for the conservation of livestock biodiversity.

It has been observed that milk from different cattle breeds with the same casein composite genotype shows different chemical and coagulation properties. The aim of this work was to characterize CSN1S1, CSN2 and CSN3 gene variants in Agerolese cattle, an Italian autochthonous breed, milk of which is used to produce “Provolone del Monaco”, a PDO cheese with a relevant economic interest for the Lattari Mountains area and the Sorrento Peninsula (Naples, Italy).

    Table S1. Haplogroup distributions represented in Figure 1. N: number of sequences; J: banteng, Bali cattle (Bos javanicus ); G: yak (Bos grunniens ). Other haplogroup codes are as defined previously [1,2], but T combines T, T1’2’3’ and T5 [2] while the T1 count does not include T1a1c1 haplotypes. T1 corresponds to T1a defined by [2] (16050T, 16133C), but 16050C–16133C sequences in populations with a high T1 and a low T frequency were scored as T1 with a 16050C back mutation. Frequencies of I are only given if I1 and I2 have not been differentiated. Average haplogroup percentages were based on balanced representations of breeds.
