| Abstract in Lingua Inglese | At Padua Botanical garden the scientific research in the modern sense of the term, began with a floristic taxonomic school took origin. Its history is well supplied with documentary evidence thanks to the herbaria the collection of which supported and accompained the development of botanical studies during the XIX century. G. Bonato laid down the first bases, he was professor of botany and Horti Botanici Praefectus from 1794 to 1835. He was a very famous physician but he did not wrote anything of important as a botanist. He was an industrious teacher and have good bibliographical attainments that he partly derived from his previous activity of university librarian. He established the library and began the scientific collections of Padua Botanical Garden to which he donated his books and his herbarium. Moreover he created the office of assistant professor so that young physicians could exclusively devoted themself to botanical research. Roberto De Visiani was one of G. Bonato's pupils and succeded to him: he was the first to initiate his scientific career at the Botanical Garden and when he took the place of his master he was already reknown in Italy and abroad; this was expecially due to his students about the flora of Dalmatia, his own fatherland. R. De Visiani too, when he died, donated to the Botanical Garden his own library, his rich phanerogamic herbarium and his rich precious collection of fossil plants. The Padua School of Botanists reached the top with P.A. Saccardo, assistant to R. De Visiani, who succeded to him in 1875. P.A. Saccardo was a hard-working researcher and in sixty years of activity (he collected his first herbarium at the age of thirteen) he gathered togheter an enormous number of herbarium specimen expecially of cryptogamous plants. He introduced a number of keen pupils to several important research lines about plant taxonomy. Among his collection the most important is the Mycological Herbarium with more than sixty-nine thousand specimens of fungi and more than four thousand autotypes. This is the documental base on which P.A. Saccardo worked to write his Sylloge Fungorum. |
| Abstract in Lingua Italiana | Durante il XIX secolo a Padova fiorì una scuola floristico-tassonomica, parallelamente allo sviluppo delle collezioni erbariali, le cui premesse furono poste da Giuseppe Bonato con la donazione del suo erbario e della sua ricca biblioteca. Gli successe nel 1835 Roberto de Visiani, florista di vaglia e di buona fama, che diede un forte impulso alle collezioni fanerogamiche fra le quali, di particolare pregio, quella della Flora Dalmatica. Nel 1875 lasciò il posto all'allievo Pier Andrea Saccardo che in un cinquantennio di indefessa attività raccolse, anche con la collaborazione di numerosi allievi, con scambi e acquisizioni a vario titolo, una quantita enorme di materiale erbariale, soprattutto crittogamico. La sua Sylloge fungorum ha come riscontro un Erbario micologico da circa settantamila esemplari di funghi. |
