Antociani ed acidi cinnamici per la caratterizzazione di vitigni in zone diverse della Toscana

Land use, plays a relevant role in the climatic system. It endows means for agriculture practices thus contributing to the food supply. Since climate and land are closely intertwined through multiple interface processes, climate change may lead to significant impacts in land use. In this study, 1-km observational gridded datasets are used to assess changes in the Köppen–Geiger and Worldwide Bioclimatic (WBCS)

SO2 reaction with electrophilic species present in wine, including in particular carbonyl compounds, is responsible for the reduction of its protective effect during wine aging. In the present study, direct 1H NMR profiling was used to monitor the reactivity of SO2 with acetaldehyde under wine-like oxidation conditions.

An experimental vineyard with a radial array was planted in 2018, to provide valuable information on the relationship between orientation and planting density on plant physiology and cluster microclimate, and the consequent impacts on grape secondary metabolites, including aromas and polyphenols.

Viti-tunnel®, une innovation imaginée pour répondre à deux des objectifs majeurs des viticulteurs : 1.la sécurisation de la vendange : viti-tunnel® permet de protéger les vignobles des pertes de récolte dues aux maladies, au gel et à la grêle. 2.la réduction des pesticides : viti-tunnel® permet de réduire de plus de 90 %, le recours aux produits phytosanitaires et aux passages de pulvérisateurs, et ce, en toute sécurité pour la vendange. Un dispositif automatisé pour protéger les vignes viti-tunnel® est un dispositif de mise à l’abri automatique des rangs de vigne pendant les pluies et les évènements climatiques extrêmes.

Context and purpose of the study ‐ Recently early defoliation (ED) has been tested in several high‐ yielding grapevine varieties and sites aiming at reducing cluster compactness and hence, regulating yield and susceptibility to botrytis bunch rot infection. The reported results have been generally positive, encouraging growers to use this canopy management technique as an alternative for replacing the conventional time‐consuming cluster thinning and, simultaneously, as a sustainable practice to reduce the use of fungicides. However, ED increases berry sunburn risks and/or can induce carry‐over effects on vigor and node fruitfulness as shown in the two case studies reported in this work.
