Phenotyping bud break and trafficking of dormant buds from grafted vine

Abstract

In grapevine, phenology from bud break to berry maturation, depends on temperature and water availability. Increases in average temperatures accelerates initiation of bud break, exposing newly formed shoots to detrimental environmental stresses. It is therefore essential to identify genotypes that could delay phenology in order to adapt to the environment. The use of different rootstocks has been applied to change scion’s characteristics, to adapt and resist to abiotic and biotic stresses[1]. It is the main objective of this project to identify rootstock genotypes that could contribute in delaying bud burst in order to adapt to extreme climate events. For this, first we investigated the cold requirements to achieve a homogenous bud break pattern from cuttings of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Chasselas[2]. Interestingly, Merlot needs longer cold exposure times to achieve 100% bud break. Moreover, bud break of different Vitis species was assessed in the field. Two late and one early Vitis were identified which will be used as rootstock in grafts with Cabernet Sauvignon. Bud break times of these combinations will be assessed to identify changes in bud dormancy in the scion. Furthermore, buds from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and RGM are being sampled for a year-cycle to follow bud development, dormancy and bud break by RNAseq and metabolomics. This, coupled with QTLs identified from bud break of a population of Cabernet Sauvignon x Vitis riparia, will allow the identification of genes involved in dormancy and bud break. Lastly, to understand the rootstock/scion/bud communication, traficking of calceine in cuttings containing dormant and non-dormant buds was studied to indicate the moment in which this molecule is able to enter the bud. Results show that calceine is not able to enter the bud in either condition therefore, 32P is being used to rule out a possible molecular size effect.

Comparison of ancestral and traditional methods in the elaboration of sparkling wines; preliminary results

Top quality sparkling wines (SW) are mostly produced using the traditional method that implies a second fermentation into the bottle[1]. That is the case of sparkling wines of reputed AOC such as Champagne, Cava or Franciacorta. However, it seems that the first SW was elaborated using the ancestral method in which only one fermentation takes place[2]. That is the case of the classical SW from the AOC Blanquette de Limoux[3]. In both cases, SW age in the bottle during some time in contact with lees favoring yeast’s autolysis[4]. There is a lot of information about traditional method but only few exists about ancestral method. The aim of this work was to compare SW made by the ancestral method with SW made by the traditional method.

Water and nutritional savings shape non-structural carbohydrates in grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) cuttings

Global changes and sustainability challenge researchers in saving water and nutrients. The response of woody crops, which can be forced at facing more drought events during their life, is particularly important. Vitis vinifera can be an important model for its relevance in countries subjected to climate changes and its breeding, requiring cuttings plantation and strong pruning.

Possible methods of adaptation to the effects of climate change in the Tokaj Wine Region 

Viticulture’s adaptation to the harmful effects of climate change is globally the biggest challenge of the near future. Short, extremely intensive rainfalls and longer periods of drought are getting more frequent in the Tokaj Wine Region, where the majority of the vineyards are cultivated on steep slopes. Hence, erosion has high risk, especially when combined with the loess-based soils on about ten percent of the region. The environmentally beneficial cover crop and mulch usage can effectively reduce the risk of erosion, according to research done by the Tokaj Wine Region Research Institute of Viticulture and Oenology.

Polysaccharide families of lyophilized extracts obtained from unfermented varietal grape pomaces

The recovery of bioactive compounds from grape and wine by-products is currently an important objective for revaluation and sustainability. Grape pomace is one of the main by-products and is a rich source of some bioactive compounds. The aim of this study was to evaluate the polysaccharide (PS) composition of extracts obtained from pomaces of different white and red grape varieties of Castilla y León. Grape pomaces were obtained after the pressing in the winemaking process.

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.
