Investigation on harvesting period choices for correct interpretation of experimental results

Abstract

Happens too often in scientific papers to find the same harvesting period of a cultivar, although the used treatment influence a maturity curve of investigated thesis.
This inevitably leads to wrong conclusions when comparing the treatment effects, since obtained on maturity stages more or less far from those technologically correct.
The present paper has the aim to enhance the sensibility of our environment, and not only, this fundamental aspect in the framework of a larger project, has the aim to enhance various aspects of “quality” (for example organoleptic, economic, social and existential) and of its “economies” (Cargnello G. (1996): La qualite economique, l’economie de la qualite et la qualite economique des preferences: differentes considerations. Compte-rendu n° 9 GESCO, Budapest (Hongrie), 21 -23 Août, pp.379-384.). It was conducted on cv. Prosecco in “Terra della Valle del Piave” in collaboration with respected Casa vitivinicola Carpenè – Malvolti di Conegliano.
Particularly, the research about short cut (Spur Pruned Cordon of Conegliano) and long (precisely of training form “Prosecco Alta Marca”), showed that production of the last one is penalised if harvesting time is judged on thesis of Pruned Cordon, and inversely, in function of product typology we want to obtain and of enterprise objectives we want to achieve.

Dialing in remote measurements of grapevine water stress by incorporating whole plant physiological responses

Context and purpose of the study. Current remote sensing strategies rely heavily on reflectance data and energy balance modelling using thermal imagery to estimate crop water use and stress.

Variability of Constitutive Stilbenoid Levels and Profiles in Grape Canes (Vitis spp.) depending on Genetic and Environmental Factors

Grape cane is a viticultural by-product that is currently underused or not used at all. Therefore, it bears a high potential for valorization due to the presence of anti-microbially active stilbenoids, being biologically relevant for plant defense. These compounds are highly interesting for applications in the agricultural sector as well as for the food and feed industry.
