Volatile analysis of Botrytis contaminated grapes using headspace solid phase microextraction GC-MS

Abstract

Grapes infected with grey mould due Botrytis cinerea are widespread in vineyards during certain growing conditions.  Excessive infection levels may lead to decreased yields and the formation of off flavours in wine made from infected grapes. To assist in timely vineyard management that minimises yield and quality losses, decision support tools that correlate early detection of Botrytis infection and quantification of potential off flavour development is desirable.In this study, laboratory infection of whole bunches/ single berries with Botrytis cinerea to create a range of grey mould contamination in Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Semillon were undertaken. After SPME GC-MS detection of grape homogenate, 8 out of 22 volatile compounds, including 3-octanol, 3-octanone, 1,5-dimethylnapthalene and 1,5-dimethyltetralin, were identified from VIP score and selectivity ratio, and excellent predictive model of Botrytis cinerea infection levels (determined by ergosterol measurement, antigen capture and qPCR) were developed using PLS and PLS2. These compounds, with high predictive accuracy, could be considered as potential biomarkers for rapid MS techniques in early stage.

Yeasts protein extracts: new low impact tool for wine protein stability

Yeast protein extracts (ypes) have flocculating properties, allowing clarification of musts and wines. They are already authorized by oiv for fining purposes with a maximum dosage limit of 60 g/hl for red wines, and 30 g/hl for musts, white and rosè wines. The extraction of ypes from the cytoplasm of yeasts (saccharomyces spp) cells is defined by the resolution oiv oeno 452-2012, that indicate also some specification of the final product.

Within-vineyard variability in grape composition at the estate scale can be assessed through machine-learning modeling of plant water status in space and time. A case study from the hills of Adelaida District AVA, Paso Robles, CA, USA

Aim: Through machine-learning modelling of plant water status from environmental characteristics, this work aims to develop a model able to predict grape phenolic composition in space and time to guide selective harvest decisions at the estate scale.

Monitoring vineyard canopy structure by aerial and ground-based RGB and multispectral imagery analysis

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are increasingly used to monitor canopy structure and vineyard performance. Compared with traditional remote sensing platforms (e.g. aircraft and satellite), UAVs offer a higher operational flexibility and can acquire ultra-high resolution images in formats such as true color red, green and blue (RGB) and multispectral. Using photogrammetry, 3D vineyard models and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) maps can be created from UAV images and used to study the structure and health of grapevine canopies. However, there is a lack of comparison between UAV-based images and ground-based measurements, such as leaf area index (LAI) and canopy porosity.
