Genotype-environment interaction of three cultivars of vitis vinifera L. cultivated in two different environments of the Ischia island: effect on production and quality; aspects of the quality of the obtained wines

Abstract

Pendant une période de trois années le comportement productif et qualitatif de trois cépages tous indigènes de la région de Campania (Italie méridionale) dans deux terroirs de l’île d’Ischia a été étudié; ceci pour obtenir quelques indications préliminaires sur le comportement productif et qualitatif des cépages et sur la qualité des vins. Les résultats obtenus indiquent la non-existence de facteurs limitants pour la culture de tous les cultivars testés dans les terroirs considérés. Le comportement des cépages et la qualité des vins obtenus la plupart du temps ont été plus influencée par le «facteur cépages» que par le «facteur terroir». Le vin de Biancolella a été catalogué comme «acceptable». Greco et Fiano comme «bon».

During a three year period the productive and qualitative behaviour of three grapevines, all native of the Campania region (Southern ltaly), in two distinguished environments of the Ischia island it has been studied, with the aim to obtain some preliminary indications on the productive and qualitative grapevines behaviour and on the quality of the obtainable wines. The results indicate the nonexistence, for all the tested cultivars, of limiting factors their cultivation in the considered environments. The grapevines behaviour and the quality of the obtained wines mostly were influenced by the “grapevine factor” than by the “terroir factor”. Biancolella wine was categorised as “acceptable”, Greco and Fiano as “good”.

Partial rootzone drying (PRD): strategic irrigation management as viticultural tool affecting plant physiology and berry quality

Partial rootzone drying (PRD) is an irrigation management technique designed to reduce water use in grapevines without a decline in yield, thereby increasing water use efficiency (WUE). The principle of PRD is to keep part of the root system at a constant drying rate to produce soil derived signals to above-ground plant organs to induce a
