Influence of irrigation frequency on berry phenolic composition of red grape varieties cultivated in four spanish wine-growing regions

Abstract

The global warming phenomenon involves the frequency of extreme meteorological events accompanied by a change in rainfall distribution. Irrigation frequency (IF) affects the spatial and temporal soil water distribution but its effects on the phenolic composition of the grape have been scarcely studied. The aim of this work was to evaluate the effects of four deficit irrigation frequencies of 30 % ETo: one irrigation per day (T01), two irrigations per week (T03), one irrigation per week (T07) and one irrigation every two weeks (T15) on berry phenolic composition at harvest. The experiment was carried out during two consecutive seasons (2021 and 2022), in vineyards of Garnacha Tinta (in Badajoz: T03, T07, T15), Tempranillo (in Valladolid: T03, T07, T15), Syrah (in Albacete: T03 and T07) and Mencía (in Lugo: T01, T03, T07). Polyphenolic substances were extracted from grapes. Thirty-six compounds grouped into anthocyanins and non-anthocyanins compounds were analyzed by HPLC. In 2021, practically no effect on the accumulation of phenolic compounds caused by FI was observed. Only the concentration of acetates in Syrah increased with the T07 treatment compared to T03. In 2022, T07 compared to T03 favored the accumulation of anthocyanins compounds in Tempranillo and Syrah, while Mencía was hardly affected and Garnacha Tinta even decreased its values significantly. In Tempranillo, T15 tended to slightly increase the anthocyanin content compared to T03, while in Garnacha Tinta the concentration of acetates tended to decrease. T01 applied to Mencía tended to increase the anthocyanin content, mainly compared to T03. Regarding non-anthocyanins compounds, the different irrigation treatments did not affect the accumulation of the analysed compounds. The results show that the phenolic composition of grapes, mainly anthocyanins, can be affected by the irrigation strategy applied and its effects may vary depending on the variety and the year.

Antimicrobial activity of oenological polyphenols against Gram positive and Gram negative intestinal multidrug-resistant bacteria

Bacterial antibiotic resistance is a major current health problem. Polyphenols have demonstrated antibacterial activity, and in this work we studied the effect of oenological polyphenols on the growth of intestinal multidrug-resistant strains of human and animal origin. Two Enterococcus faecium strains, resistant to vancomycin and other antibiotics, and four Escherichia coli strains, resistant to ampicillin and other antibiotics, were included in this study. All strains showed multidrug resistant phenotypes and genotypes to at least two antibiotic families.

Volatile composition of Cabernet Sauvignon wines from Argentina, Portugal and Spain

Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the most cultivated grape varieties worldwide being grown in different environmental conditions due to its excellent adaptability. Volatile compounds deeply contribute to the sensory properties of wines therefore to wine quality. The aim of this work was to compare the aroma profile of Cabernet Sauvignon wines from different geographical areas and climatic conditions, namely from Argentina, Portugal and Spain, from the vintage 2022. In addition, the volatile composition of the Cabernet Sauvignon Portuguese wines from three vintages was evaluated.

Effects of progeny in the modulation of the response to water stress in isohydric and anisohydric varieties

Each grapevine variety has a specific water use regulation response under drought, and it is still unclear whether this regulation results from innate genotypic behavior (iso- and anisohydric), or is a response to environmental factors, namely recurrent water stress priming effects. In the present work, we explored the influence of the field-grown genotypes’ drought memory in the drought-response phenotype of their vegetative progenies, in Trincadeira (isohydric) and Castelão (anisohydric) varieties under a drought event followed by recovery in a glasshouse. Cuttings from both cultivars subjected to full irrigation (FI) and non-irrigation (NI) treatments for 5 consecutive years were used.

Application of antagonistic Metschnikowia strains against Botrytis cinerea in vineyards 

Less and less chemical plant protection products are approved by the E U. Plant pathogenic fungi become increasingly resistant to the active ingredients that have been around for a long time. Besides, there is a valid demand for effective products that can be applied in organic cultivation.
We examined Metschnikowia strains under laboratory conditions in order to find effective strains against B. cinerea. The antimicrobial mechanism of these yeasts is based on the competition for the ferric ions from the environment. Metschnikowia cells release the pulcherriminic acid which chelates with Fe3+, forming the pigment pulcherrimin.
