Contribution of very high resolution satellite remote sensing to the mapping of harvest zones in the Maipo Valley (Chile)

Abstract

[English version below]

Les images de très haute résolution spatiale sont utilisées depuis peu en viticulture comme une aide à la cartographie des zones de vendanges. A partir d’images multispectrales de très haute résolution spatiale IKONOS (résolution 4 m) et SPOT-5 en supermode (résolution 2.5 m), on propose ici une démarche de segmentation d’une région de vignoble en zones de vendanges. Outre les états de la végétation de la vigne, on considère une caractérisation des états de surface du sol. La démarche repose sur une étude diachronique à deux dates sensibles du cycle de la vigne, mars 2001 (IKONOS) et juillet 2002 (SPOT-5). L’étude porte sur 134 ha, comprenant 23 parcelles irriguées de Cabernet-Sauvignon. Les traitements d’images consistent en des masquages, réalisés à partir d’une image infra-rouge couleur, qui isolent tour à tour la végétation de la vigne ou les sols nus. Des classifications ascendantes hiérarchiques conduisent à déterminer 6 classes de végétation de la vigne, ordonnées par niveau de biomasse (et d’activité) chlorophyllienne, et 4 classes de sols nus. Ces résultats montrent que le niveau de biomasse chlorophyllienne de la vigne est spécifiquement associé à certaines classes de sols nus. Les résultats sont discutés en liaison avec des informations viticoles concernant cépage, mode de conduite, orientation des rangs, enherbement, irrigation, âge des ceps, densité de plantation.

Use of very high-resolution images, as a support to demarcating grape harvest zones, is recent in viticulture. Using very high resolution IKONOS (4 m-resolution) and supermode SPOT-5 (2.5 m-resolution) multispectral images, this paper here proposes an approach of segmentating a vineyard region into grape harvest zones. In addition to vine vegetation states, soil surface is characterized. This approach relies on a diachronic study at two significant dates of the vine cycle: March 2001 (IKONOS) and July 2002 (SPOT-5). The study is carried out over 134 ha, comprising 23 Cabernet-Sauvignon irrigated plots. Images are processed by successive maskings carried out on a Infrared Color (IRC) image, which alternately isolate vine vegetation or bare soils. The performing of Ascending Hierarchical Classifications result in defining 6 vine vegetation classes, which are ranked by chlorophyll biomass (and activity) qualitative level, and 4 bare soil classes. These results demonstrate that vine chlorophyll biomass qualitative levels are specifically related to some classes of bare soils. Results are discussed in relationship with viticultural data referring to variety, training system, row orientation, grass cover, irrigation, plant age, planting density.

Ampelograpic and genetic characterisation of grapevine genetic resources from Ozalj-Vivodina region (Croatia)

Ozalj- vivodina region is small vine growing area (only about 100 hectares of vineyards), but with significant number of old, ancient vineyards planted between 50 and 100 years ago. Trend of abandoning or replanting ancient vineyards takes place for the last 30 years. This trend results in grapevine germplasm erosion because traditional varieties are replaced with well known international varieties.Few known traditional varieties are dominantly present in ancient vineyards together with many others of unknown identity. Historical data about prevalence and characteristic of varieties on this area are very poor.

This study evaluates the effect of different oenological factors and natural mediators on the degradation of Ochratoxin A (OTA) using Botrytis cinerea laccase.

Oak Tannin and Unoaked and Oaked Wine Extracts Influence Gene Expression in HepaRG Human Liver Cells

Previous work from our laboratory has shown that both a purified toasted oak powder and extracts made from unoaked and oaked red wines influenced physiological parameters, metabolism and hepatic gene expression in high-fat fed C57/BL6J male mice (Luo et al., 2020).  Impacted pathways included glucose metabolism, liver fat accumulation, markers of chronic inflammation, and expression of the Gsta1 mRNA.  

The legal concept of “cultural heritage” to refurbish the wine sector’s priorities

Following the latest oiv global report (april 26, 2024), the prevailing perception of wine consumption finds itself undergoing one of its most challenging adjustments. It’s plausible to anticipate a shift in the scope of pdo wines towards more human-centered products (wells and stiefel, 2019), necessitating the entire sector to adapt strategies to public interest patterns (touzeau, 2010: 17-31). Previously, a dominant notion of cultural property underscored the value of wine regions; the primary interest revolved around estate owners and retailers, along with vigneron tales.

Generation and characterization of a training population in Vitis vinifera for enhanced genomic selection

Context and purpose of the study. Modern viticulture is facing significant challenges due to global climate changes, spanning from extreme heat spells and water scarcity to the acceleration of grapevine’s phenological development with important consequences from budbreak to harvest.
