Georges Couderc (1850-1928). Georges Couderc was from the same town as Albert Seibel in the Ard6che region, in the southern Rhone Valley. Couderc is perhaps best known as a rootstock breeder but also released a few scion cultivars. These include Muscat de Moulin [C.299-35 C.603 (yinifera, rupestris) x Pedro Ximenez], which is... 

Bertille Seyve, pere (1864-1939). Bertille Seyve was from the Isbre Department. He used many of Seibel s early hybrids as parents. The only cultivars from his programme that remain of interest are Le Commandant (BS 2862 S. 822 x S.872) and Le General (BS 5563 S.6905 x S.3445).

An important collection of grapevine cultivars is also at the Faculty of Horticulture in Lednice na Morave. This collection involves, above all, interspedlic cultivars of V. vinifera xVitis amurensis, V. vtm/crax Fiench-American hybrid vines (Seibel, Seyve Villard, Baco, etc.) and V. viniferaxV. amurensisxFrench-Amencaa hybrids. This collection involves -300 cultivars and hybrids. 

Until the middle of the 1900s, Brazilian viticulture was restricted to the cultivation of American grapes under temperate and subtropical climates in the South and Southeast. After the spread of Isabella from 1830 to 1840, other American cultivars became popular, such as Herbemont, Concord, Ives, Seibel 2, White Niagara, Rose Niagara and Jacquez. In the 1970s, the Brazilian white wine market was supported by Seyve Villard 5276 and Couderc 13, while the red wines were mainly made from Ives (synonym Bordo) and Concord (Camargo et al., 2012c).
