Description
V. aestivalis is a perennial vine in the Vitaceae family native to North America and Canada. [2]
Distribution
V. aestivalis is found in the eastern half of the United States and California, as well as the Ontario region of Canada. [2]
Ecology
Habitat
V. aestivalis proliferates in forests and woodlands, mostly upland. [1]
Associated Species- V. aestivalis has been found with plants of the following genera: Ulmus, Betula, Quercus, and Carpinus [3].
Vitis aestivalis is an indicator species for the North Florida Longleaf Woodlands community type as described in Carr et al. (2010).[4]
Phenology
V. aestivalis has been observed to flower in April and May. [5]
Seed dispersal
This species is thought to be dispersed by consumption by vertebrates. [6]
Fire ecology
V. aestivalis is not fire resistant and has low fire tolerance[2]; despite this, populations have been known to persist through repeated annual burns.[7][8]
Herbivory and toxicology
V. aestivalis has high palatability for browsing animals and humans, but low palatability for grazing animals. [2] This species has been observed to host aphids such as Aphis sp. (family Aphididae).[9]
Conservation, cultivation, and restoration
V. aestivalis is listed as endangered by the Maine Department of Conservation Natural Areas Program, as a prohibited noxious weed by the Ohio Department of Agriculture Plant Industry Division, and as a weedy or invasive species by the state agriculture or natural resource departments of 46 states. [2]
Cultural use
Vitis aestivalis produces an edible drupe that can be eaten raw or made into goods such as jelly or wine.[10]
