Conduite en Lys: résultats pendant la formation du système avec le cépage Loureiro dans la région des “Vinhos Verdes”

Abstract

[English version below]

Dans la région des “Vinhos Verdes” les études sur les systèmes de conduite de la vigne sont très importantes et beaucoup de travaux ont été faits pendant les dernières années. Cet essai, avec la nouvelle conduite Lys, a été installé en 1996 dans la Station Vitivinicole Amândio Galhano (EVAG) située au nord-ouest du Portugal. Les résultats presentés se rapportent dans les deux premiéres années de formation du système Lys: 1998 et 1999.
On étudie huit clones du cépage Loureiro gréffés sur deux porte-greffes: 101-14 et 1103P. La densité de plantation est de 3.333 ceps par hectare (3,0 m x 1,0 m). Deux niveaux de charge ont été appliqués: C1 = 9.999 vs C2 = 19.998 bourgeons/ha en 1998 et C1 = 33.330 vs C2 = 46.662 bourgeons/ha en 1999.
En ce qui concerne la conduite des jeunes souches, il est très important le choix des unités permanentes (bras et épaules) pendant le développement végétatif, en sélectionnant les sarments les plus vigoureux et les plus bien placés.
Le plus bas niveau de charge en 1998 (C1 = 9.999) fut insuffisant en provoquant des sarments trop vigoureux et conséquemment un pourcentage élevé de sarments cassés, tandis que, le plus haut niveau de charge en 1999 (C2= 46.662) a provoqué des rendements significativement plus élevés mais accompagnés de pertes de qualité du moût. Le système Lys a revélé précocement un élevé potentiel de rendement et qualité (2-3 ans). D’ autre part, le porte-greffe 101-14 dans ce cépage et dans ce système a été au-dessus du porte-greffe 1103P soit au niveau du rendement soit au niveau de la qualité.

In the ‘Vinhos Verdes’ region the studies about vine training systems are very importants and many works were made in the last years. This research, with the new system Lys, was installated in 1996 at the ‘Amândio Galhano Viticulture Station’ in the north-west of Portugal. The results were carried out in the formation system period: 1998-1999.
We are studing eight clones of Loureiro grapevine grefted onto two rootstocks varieties: 101-14 and 1103P. The plants are arranged according to the rectangular plan of 3,0 m x 1,0 m (3.333 plants/ha) and the bud loads were: C1 = 9.999 vs C2 = 19.998 buds/ha in 1998 and C1 = 33.330 vs C2 = 46.662 buds/ha in 1999.
In the formation period, it is very important the choice of the permanent unities during the vegetal development, making a selection about the most vigorous and the best placed shoots.
The lowest bud load in 1998 (C1=9 999) was insufficient making a very vigorous shoots and consecutively many shoots broken by the wind; on the other hand, the highest bud load in 1999 (C2 = 46 662) showed significantly higher yields and lower must weights. Also, the rootstock variety 101-14 was better than 1 103P variety in the yield and quality levels. The training system Lys showed un early produce and quality potential.

Exploring the influence of grapevine rootstock on yield components 

Yield is an agronomic trait that is critical to the sustained success and profitability of the wine industry. In the context of global warming, overall yield tends to decrease. Rootstock has been identified as a relevant lever for adaptation to changing environmental conditions. The aims of this study are; i) to finely identify the components of the yield influenced by rootstock; ii) to characterise the rootstock × scion interaction; iii) to understand the trade-off between vigour and yield.

Impact of technical itineraries on the diversity and the functioning of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and associated microorganisms in vineyards soils and grapevine roots

Context and purpose. The vine is a holobiont, where the plant interacts positively, negatively, and neutrally with microbes that together form the vine’s microbiome.

Climate change projections to support the transition to climate-smart viticulture

The Earth’s system is undergoing major changes through a wide range of spatial and temporal scales as a response to growing anthropogenic radiative forcing, which is pushing the whole system far beyond its natural variability. Sources of greenhouse gases largely exceed their sinks, thus leading to a strengthened greenhouse effect. More energy is thereby being supplied to the system, with inevitable shifts in climatic patterns and weather regimes. Over the last decades, these modifications have been manifested in the full statistical distributions of the atmospheric variables, with dramatic changes in the frequency and intensity of extremes. Natural hazards, such as severe droughts, floods, forest fires, or heatwaves, are being triggered by extreme atmospheric events worldwide, thus threatening human activities. Viticultculture is not only exposed to changing climates but is also highly vulnerable, as grapevine phenology and physiological development are strongly controlled by atmospheric conditions. Therefore, the assessment of climate change projections for a given region is critical for climate change adaptation and risk reduction in viticulture. By adopting timely and suitable measures, the future sustainability and resiliency of the sector can be fostered. Climate-grapevine chain modelling is an essential tool for better planning and management. However, the accuracy of the resulting projections is limited by many uncertainties that must be duly taken into account when transferring knowledge to stakeholders and decision-makers. Climate-smart viticulture will comprise ensembles of locally tuned strategies, envisioning both adaptation and mitigation, assisted by emerging technologies and decision-support systems.

Varieties and rootstocks: an important mean for adaptation to terroir

A large genetic diversity exists among V. vinifera varieties, but also among cultivated rootstocks. This diversity is important to adapt plant material to different environmental conditions
