Yeast mannoprotein characterization and their effect on Oenococcus oeni and malolactic fermentation

Abstract

Mannoproteins are released at the end of alcoholic fermentation due to yeast autolysis [1]. It has been described a positive effect of these molecules on lactic acid bacteria growth [2]. The main objective of this work was the characterization of different mannoproteins extracted from active dry yeast (ADY) and the assessment of their effect on Oenococcus oeni and malolactic fermentation (MLF).

The cell wall fraction of strains from different yeast species were extracted by autolysis and alkali methods: Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Torulaspora delbrueckii, Lachancea thermotolerans and Metschnikowia pulcherrima. The profiles of the polysaccharide fraction were analyzed by HPLC-DAD and HRSEC-RID. The protein and glycoprotein profiles were analyzed by SDS-PAGE. The effect on MLF of the addition of 2 g/L of each mannoprotein extract was evaluated in a wine like-medium using the O. oeni strain PSU-1 (ATCC BAA-331). The consumption of L-malic was monitored by an enzymatic method. The analysis of mannoprotein consumption, in terms of equivalents of mannose, was carried out by HPLC-MWC-RID.

The polysaccharide composition and the size of mannoproteins extracted by the two methods were significantly different for all the mannoproteins. Protein and glycoprotein profiles were also different in all the studied yeast walls. The addition of mannoprotein extract influenced the evolution of MLF differently according to the extraction method. Mannoproteins obtained by the yeast autolysis showed a positive effect on MLF in all cases; this effect was also observed in two S. cerevisiae and L. thermotolerans extracted by the alkali method. However, MLF was arrested after consuming 0.5 g/L of L-malic acid in the rest of fermentations with mannoproteins obtained by the alkali method. The results obtained indicate that the capacity of O. oeni to use mannoproteins depends on the mannoprotein composition, which in turns depends on the yeast species and the extraction method.

Rootstock regulation of scion phenotypes: the relationship between rootstock parentage and petiole mineral concentration

Rootstocks not only provide tolerance to Phylloxera, but also ensure the supply of water and mineral nutrients to the whole plant. Rootstocks are an important way of adapting to environmental conditions while conserving the typical features of scion varieties. We can exploit the large diversity of rootstocks used worldwide to aid this adaptation. The aim of this study was to characterise rootstock regulation of scion mineral status and its relation with scion development.

Wine without added SO2: Oxygen impact and color evolution during red wine aging

SO2 play a major role in wine stability and evolution during its aging and storage. Winemaking without SO2 is a big challenge for the winemakers since the lack of SO2 affects directly the wine chemical evolution such as the aromas compounds as well as the phenolic compounds. During the red wine aging, phenolic compounds such as anthocyanin, responsible of the red wine colour, and tannins, responsible of the mouthfeel organoleptic properties of wine, evolved quickly from the winemaking process to aging [1]. A lot of new interaction and molecules occurred lead by oxygen[2] thus the lack of SO2 will induce wine properties changes. Nowadays, the phenolic composition of the wine without added SO2 have not been clearly reported.

Nitrogen forms and Iron deficiency: how do Grapevine rootstocks responses change?

Grapevine rootstocks provide protection against environmental biotic and abiotic stresses. Nitrogen (N) and iron (Fe) are growth-limiting factors in many crop plants due to their effects on the chlorophyll and photosynthetic characteristics. Iron nutrition of plants can be significantly affected by different nitrogen forms through altering the uptake ratio of cations and anions, and changing rhizosphere pH. The aim of this study was to investigate the response mechanisms of grapevine rootstocks due to the interaction between different nitrogen forms and iron uptake.

Phenolic composition and chromatic characteristics of blends of cv. Tempranillo wines from vines grown with different viticultural techniques in a semi-arid area

The quality and color stability of red wines are directly related to content and distribution of phenolic compounds. However, the climate change produces the asynchrony between the dates of technological and maturity of grapes. The crop-forcing technique (CF) restores the coupling between phenolic and technological ripeness while limits vineyard yields. Blending of wines is frequently used to equilibriate composition of wines and to increase their stability, color and quality. The aim of the present work is to study the phenolic composition and color of wine blends made with FW (wines from vines subjected to CF) and CW (wines for vines under the usual cultivation practices).

Combined use of leaf removal and natural shading to delay grape ripening in Manto negro (Vitis vinifera L.) under deficit irrigation 

The increasingly frequent heat waves during grape ripening pose challenges for premium wine grape production. This makes the development of irrigation and canopy management techniques of great importance to maximize yield and grape quality. A field experiment was carried out during 2021 and 2022 using Manto negro wine grapes to study the effect of two irrigation strategies and different light exposure levels on grape quality.
