Techniques of delimitation in France

The use of next-generation sequencing (NGS) has helped understand microbial genetics in oenology. Current studies mainly focus on barcoded amplicon NGS but not shotgun sequencing, which is useful for functional analyses. Since the high percentage of grapevine DNA conceals the microbial DNA in must, the majority of sequencing data is wasted in bioinformatic analyses. Here we present capture depletion of grapevine whole genome DNA.

In this video recording of the IVES science meeting 2021, Benjamin Bois (Institut Universitaire de la Vigne et du Vin – IUVV, Université de Bourgogne, Dijon, France) speaks about zoning the climatic potentialities and risk of vineyards & wine production regions.

Chitosan is an effective antimicrobial agent available in the wine industry, because it ensures the control of a of spoilage microorganisms, such as Brettanomyces of lactic acid bacteria.

AIM: Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa) is a non-allergenic pseudocereal with a high protein content

In an attempt to reduce the pH of juice and wine, different fertiliser applications and canopy management practices were evaluated in South Africa in a field trial. Fertiliser treatments entailed no, CaSO4, Ca(OH)2, and MgSO4 fertilisation.
