Salubrity of environment and zoning process: first consideration on the radioactivity of vineyard soils

Abstract

La salubrité du milieu et des aliments intervient de plus en plus lourdement, et souvent négativement, sur la santé de l’homme, aussi bien sur l’individu que sur la société tout entière.
La nécessité, désormais vitale, de trouver des solutions valables à ce grave, problème, sollicite des recherches de plus en plus importantes dans le but de connaître les interactions entre ces variables si complexes.
Dans le secteur vitivinicole, les auteurs avaient déjà fait précédemment des recherches et des communications (OIV, 2001) sur la concentration de la radioactivité dans la chaîne terroir­vigne-raisin-vin, pour un terroir volcanique de la zone des « Castelli Romani» dans le Latium. Ils ont pu déterminer une baisse de la concentration radioactive d’environ 10 fois entre terroir et vigne, et de 100 fois entre terroir et vin.
Nous approfondissons dans ce travail ces recherches élargies aussi à un terroir de type « alluvial », en tentant de faire certaines interprétations en fonction de la physiologie de la vigne (plante pérenne) et de la fermentation de son produit.
Les données obtenues sur certains aliments végétaux à cycle annuel produits sur ces mêmes terroirs, élargissent le cadre des considérations et des hypothèses de travail.

The salubrity of environment and food in the relationship, with a bigger importance in agricultural production, has in the most cases negative sign on the human healthy. According this the salubrity has also a social aspect.
Today exist the high necessity for scientific research and solution for resolve the problem of salubrity, according all factors, which have the importance in the environment.
The authors have published in the previously works (OIV 2001 ), the problem of radioactivity in sequence vineyard soil-vine-grape-wine of specific vineyards soils of “Castelli Romani”, Lazio, vine zone of central Italy. This soil has a volcanic origin. Conceming radioactivity the results showed that the soil / vine ratio was 10 and the soil / wine ratio was 100.
In this research, as a continues of previously research, the observation was done on the one alluvial soil with relationship between radioactivity and physiology process in the vine plant and influence to must fermentation.
The obtained results with the others plant with annual cycle, in the same soils confirm the hypothesis about influence of soil radioactivity to salubrity.

Unravelling Saccharomyces cerevisiae biosynthethic pathways of melatonin, serotonin and hydroxytyrosol  by UPLC-HRMS Isotopic labelling analysis

The main objective is to unravel the yeast biosynthetic pathways for MEL, SER and HT by using the respective labelled amino acids precursors: 15N2-L tryptophan and 13C-tyrosine.
The alcoholic fermentation experiments are performed with two different commercial
S cereviseae yeasts using synthetic must with the addition of the labelled compounds and the bioactive compounds were followed during the fermentation process. Six biological replicates of the fermentations were considered. MEL, SER and HT were analysed by UHPLC coupled to High Resolution Mass Spectrometry (HRMS). Accurate mass determination allowed to unequivocally distinguishing labelled and unlabelled compounds.

Aspects concernant les relations entre quelques composantes de la biomasse viticole, en fonction de l’offre des ressources écologiques

Ecological resources represent vegetation factors, or even production factors, in quantitative expression. These, used by plants, transformed and organized according to their genetic program, become the material components of biomass. Subsequently, the ecological resources can be used as synthetic indicators of the ecological supply, necessary for the analysis of favorability for the understanding of ecosystems.

Sensory quality of wines as a trait in MAS grape vine breeding – sensory insights from multiple vintages in a F1 breeding population

In the context of the three global crises of global warming, loss of biodiversity and environmental pollution, current agricultural practices need to be reconsidered [1]. Viticulture in particular can contribute to this by optimising plant protection [2].

Vineyard management practices to reduce sugar content on ‘Monastrell’ grapes

Climate change is resulting in more dry and hot summers, accelerating grape ripening and increasing berry sugars concentration. This results in wines with a higher alcohol content, which has a negative impact on wine quality, as well as, on consumer health. Agronomic practices that minimize these effects on berry composition and, consequently, on wine quality must be defined. In this work, different management practices have been assessed on rainfed ‘Monastrell’ grapevines in Jumilla (Murcia, Spain) from 2021 to 2023 vintages. Mulching, shading, application of kaolin and different types of pruning were evaluated, among others field adaptation practices.
