## Description

The Vitis International Variety Catalogue (VIVC) serves as an essential resource for the global grapevine community, documenting a vast array of grape species, varieties, and cultivars. Established in 1983 by the Institute for Grapevine Breeding Geilweilerhof, the VIVC has evolved into a comprehensive online database accessible since 1996. It supports breeders, researchers, and wine growers by providing detailed passport data on grape varieties, including their geographical origins, breeding institutions, and morphological characteristics.

VIVC also includes critical evaluation data, highlighting the resistance of various grape cultivars to diseases like Botrytis and Pierce's disease. With contributions from 130 institutions across 45 countries, the catalogue encompasses a wide spectrum of genetic information—ranging from SSR marker profiles to statistical data that monitor grape genetic resources. With a commitment to sustainable grape production and biodiversity, VIVC remains an indispensable tool for advancing grapevine research and development worldwide.
