“Gheo” per la vitivinicoltura: un progetto per la produzione dl vini dl alta qualità

Abstract

Il settore primario, ed in particolare quello agricolo, sta attraversando un periodo partico­larmente delicato. Sia gli aspetti della produzione che quelli della commercializzazione ven­gono infatti messi in discussione da nuovi indirizzi economici e tecnologici. Prioritaria è l’e­sigenza di disporre di prodotti la cui qualità sia globale cosi definita sia per le caratteristiche intrinseche del prodotto che per la compatibilità nei confronti dell’ambiente delle tecniche utilizzate per la sua produzione. Altrettanto importante è la tipicità del prodotto, ovvero la non riproducibilità in ambienti diversi delle stesse caratteristiche organolettiche, unica garanzia nei confronti di un mercato sempre più aperto. Le colture tipiche di alta qualità rap­presentano quindi il futuro per un’agricoltura che sarà sempre meno assistita.

Phenology and maturation of Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from young vineyards at Santa Catarina state, Brazil – a survey of vineyard altitude and mesoclimat influences

Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from recently planted vines in Santa Catarina State (Brazil), were sampled during ripening from the 2005 and 2006 vintages.

Towards a better understanding of cultivar susceptibility to esca disease: results from a pluriannual common garden monitoring

Grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) exhibits a high level of genetic and phenotypic diversity among the approximately 6000 cultivars recorded. This perennial crop is highly vulnerable to numerous fungal diseases, including esca, which is a complex vascular pathology that poses a significant threat to the wine sector, as there is currently no cost-efficient curative method[1]. In this context, an effective approach to mitigate the impact of such diseases is by leveraging the crop’s genetic diversity. Indeed, susceptibility to esca disease appears to vary between cultivars, under artificial or natural infection. However, the mechanisms and varietal characteristics underlying cultivar susceptibility to esca are still unknown.

Response to powdery and downy mildew of varieties with disease resistance genes (PIWI)

Erysiphe necator and Plasmopara viticola are the causal agents of powdery and downy mildew on grapevines, leading to significant economic losses. Numerous chemical treatments are applied to control these diseases, leading to environmental problems and the appearance of resistance to these products. Therefore, the study of new strategies to achieve the objectives of sustainable development is a priority. In this sense, the use of new varieties resistant to these diseases may be an option of interest. The objective of this work was to analyze the degree of resistance of 9 varieties with downy mildew resistance genes (Rpv3 and/or Rpv12), four of which also carry a powdery mildew resistance gene (Ren 1) by in vitro inoculation assays.

Identification and quantification of c-glucosidic ellagitannins and their derivative in red wine aged in oak barrels

The C-glycosidic ellagitannins constitute a subclass of hydrolyzable tannins of remarkable structural diversity. In this work we first achieved the hemisynthesis of flavano-ellagitannins, then we used them to develop a new efficient detection and quantification procedure for the C-glycosidic ellagitannins as well as flavano-ellagitannins.

Effects of different soil types and soil management on greenhouse gas emissions 

Soil is important in the carbon cycle and the dynamics of greenhouse gases (CO2, CH4 and N2O). Key soil characteristics, such as organic matter content, texture, structure, pH and microbial activity, play a determining role in GHG emissions[1]. The objective of the study is to delimit different types of soil, with different soil management and to be able to verify the differences in CO2, CH4 and N2O emissions. The study was carried out in a vineyard of Bodegas Campo Viejo in Logroño (La Rioja), whose plant material is Vitis vinifera L. cv. Tempranillo.
