Effect of foliar treatment of methyl jasmonate and nanoparticles doped with methyl jasmonate on Monastrell grape skin cell wall

Abstract

The use of elicitors to promote the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites in grapes has been tackled in several reports, however its study linked to nanotechnology is less developed. On the other hand, many works have studied the phenomenon of the extraction in the wine of the compounds that are present in the skin which is affected by several factors as maceration time, temperature, pH, alcoholic degree, use of enzymes. Other important factor to take into account in their extractability of these compounds is the grape cell wall composition, influenced by variety, culture practices, climate conditions, and its facility to be break down. Thus, in this work we present for the first time, the effect  of methyl jasmonate (MeJ) in conventional way and  as nanoparticles doped with MeJ (nano-MeJ) on the cell wall composition of Monastrell and also the relation with its wine phenolic content.Three foliar treatments were applied by triplicate on veraison and a week later, with 10 vines each replicate:  i) Control, ii) MeJ 10 mM  and iii) Nano-MeJ (equivalent to 1mM in MeJ) over three seasons (2019, 2020 and 2021).Cell wall material was isolated using the procedure described by Paladines-Quezada et al. [1]. Uronic acids, proteins, total phenols and cellulosic glucose were analysed following the methodology propose by Apolinar-Valiente et al. [2] .On the other hand the following parameters were evaluated in wine: colour intensity, total polyphenols index and anthocyanins.Regarding cell wall composition, the results showed a decrease in the concentration of cellulosic glucose and total phenols, an increased in proteins and specially in the uronic acids in both treatments applied.With respect to the wine results, the highest anthocyanin concentration was obtained in wines elaborated with MeJ treated grapes but this increase was not evident in wines elaborated with grapes treated with nano-MeJ. So it is possible that the interaction of the increment in proteins and uronic acids and the reduction of cellulosic glucose in the cell wall for this treatment diminished the extractability of phenolic compounds into wine. Other possibility is that the concentration applied in the form of nanoparticles was not sufficient to increase its amount of phenolic compounds in grapes and therefore in wines.Finally, all the parameters studied in grapes and wines were affected by the season studied, being evident the interaction between treatment and year for all of them except for cellulosic glucose and colour intensity.

Physiological and growth reaction of Shiraz/101-14 Mgt to row orientation and soil water status

Advanced knowledge on grapevine row orientation is required to improve establishment, management and outcomes of vineyards on terroirs with different environmental conditions (climate, soil, topography) and in view of a future change to more extreme climatic conditions. The purpose of this study was to determine the combined effect of row orientation, plant water status and ripeness level on the physiological and viticultural reaction of Shiraz/101-14 Mgt.

Effects of mechanical leafing and deficit irrigation on Cabernet Sauvignon grown in warm climate of California

San Joaquin Valley accounts for 40% of wine grape acreage and produces 70% of wine grape in California. Fruit quality is one of most important factors which impact the economical sustainability of farming wine grapes in this region. Due to the recent drought and expected labor cost increase, the wine industry is thrilled to understand how to improve fruit quality while maintaining the yield with less water and labor input. The present study aims to study the interactive effects of mechanical leafing and deficit irrigation on yield and berry compositions of Cabernet Sauvignon grown in warm climate of California.

The effects of cane girdling on berry texture properties and the concentration of some aroma compounds in three table grape cultivars

The marketability of the table grapes is highly influenced by the consumer demand; therefore the market value of the table grapes is mainly characterized by its berry size, colour, taste and texture. Girdling could cause accumulation of several components in plants above the ringing of the phloem including clusters and resulting improved maturity. The aim of the experiments was to examine the effect of girdling on berry texture characteristics and aroma concentration.

Application of a fluorescence-based method to evaluate the ripening process and quality of Pinot Blanc grape

The chemical composition of grape berries at harvest is one of the most important factors that should be considered to produce high quality wines. Among the different chemical classes which characterize the grape juice, the polyphenolic compound, such as flavonoids, contribute to the final taste and color of wines. Recently, an innovative non-destructive method, based on chlorophyll fluorescence, was developed to estimate the phenolic maturity of red grape varieties through the evaluation of anthocyanins accumulated in the berry skin. To date, only few data are available about the application of this method on white grape varieties.

Different yield regulation strategies in semi-minimal-pruned hedge (SMPH) and impact on bunch architecture

Yields in the novel viticulture training system Semi-Minimal-Pruned Hedge (SMPH) are generally higher compared to the traditional Vertical Shoot Positioning (VSP). Excessive yields have a negative impact on the vine and wine quality, which can result in substantial losses in yield in subsequent vintages (alternate bearing) or penalties in fruit quality. Therefore yield regulation is essential. The bunch architecture in SMPH differs from VSP. Generally there is a higher amount but smaller bunches with lower single berry weights in SMPH compared to VSP.
