Callinikos: the new white table grapeseedless variety for biological produce

Abstract

Context and purpose of the study – This paper presents is the create, the study and amplographic description the new seedless grape variety «Callinicos» was created by P. Zamanidis at the Athens Vine Department of the Institute of Olive and Subtropical Plants, with the hybridization method in 2012. 

Material and methods – The variety created by crossing by resistant newly Greek table variety “Georgakis” with the variety “Soultanina” The resulting cultivar is a complex interspecific is a cross-breeding between American, European and Far East (V. Amurensis). 

Results – «Callinicos» is a complex seedless table grape cultivar. The duration of the “Callinicos” variety from budburst to maturity is 146-155 days. The variety is very strong with large shoots growth (2.1 – 3.0 m). The growth of shoots is higher over 95%. The shoots growth is strong. The bearing grapevine percentage is 90%. The average cluster weight is very big 900g. The yield is high more than 35-45 t / ha. A blossom bud has green color with yellowy-brown tones. The mature leaf is medium size, symmetrical, and five hard lobs it is divided weakly In same lobs has sort teeths. The flowers are hermaphrodite. One arm usually has two inflorescences,on4th and 6thknots.The flower is hermaphrodite. The cluster is big sized, cone-shaped, of medium-density. The berry is medium, sort elliptical, green-yellow colored. The berry weight is 5 g. The berry skin is thin and high resistance. The pulp is very firm, with varietal flavor. The content of sugar is high. The grapes can be consumed fresh and be used for raisin production. It has high resistance to fungal diseases, insects, high resistance to low temperatures, high resistance to drought and tolerant in Phylloxera.

Explorando el potencial bioprotector de levaduras nativas no-Saccharomyces en la vinificación: resultados preliminares

The use of the term bioprotection in winemaking refers to the use of non-chemical methods to prevent the development of undesirable microorganisms (yeasts and/or bacteria). The reason for studying this method is mainly as a natural alternative to the addition of sulfites during the pre-fermentation stages. In winemaking, the addition of s02 has multiple functions, the main ones being antiseptic and antioxidant power.

Effect of soil particle size on vine water status, leaf ABA content and berry quality in Nebbiolo grapes

The root and shoot abscisic acid (ABA) accumulation in response to water deficit and its relation with stomatal conductance is longtime known in grapevine. ABA-dependent and ABA-independent signalling response to osmotic stress coexist in sessile plants. In grapevine, the signaling role of ABA in response to water stress conditions and its influence on berry quality is critical to manage grapevine acclimation to climate change.

Struck flint aroma in Chardonnay wines: what causes it and how much is too much?

Struck flint/struck match/gun smoke/mineral aroma is considered desirable in some styles of wines, with this character sometimes evident in wines such as Burgundian Chablis and cooler climate barrel-fermented Australian Chardonnay.

Correlation between agronomic performance and resistance gene in PIWi varieties in the field

Today’s viticulture faces a considerable challenge dealing with fungal diseases and limitations on the use of plant protection products (PPP) have increased the pressure to find more sustainable alternatives. One strategy may be the development and cultivation of disease-resistant grapevine varieties (PIWI) that could maintain crop productivity and quality while reducing dependence on PPP. In this work a set of 9 PIWI varieties (5 white and 4 red) deploying genes for resistance to powdery and downy mildew were evaluated in two consecutive years in Valdegón, La Rioja, with Tempranillo and Viura as controls. The objective was to correlate agronomic performance and disease incidence with the presence of disease resistance genes in two different seasons: with (2023) and without disease pressure (2022).
