Greffadapt: a relevant experimental vineyard to speed up the selection of grapevine rootstocks

Abstract

Context and purpose of the study ‐ Grapevine is grown as a grafted plant since the end of the 19th century. The large majority of rootstocks were selected at this period. Among the large diversity of existing rootstocks, few of them are commercially used in the vineyard. However, rootstocks could be considered as a relevant way of adaptation to climate change context because they have no major impact on wine typicality unlike the changes of scion varieties. Rootstock selection is a long term process. Consequently, in addition of the selection of new bred genotypes, characterizing existing rootstocks already used in foreign countries or available in germplasm collections, is a complementary strategy to allow a faster enlargement of the rootstock range available for winegrowers.
Material and methods ‐ GreffAdapt is an experimental vineyard created to get and update the agronomical characteristics of 55 rootstocks. These rootstocks were grafted with 5 scions in 3 blocks of 5 vines each. Blocks were defined according to soil resistivity measurements and the statistical power of the experimental designed was calculated. Before planting, the genetic identity of each genotype was checked with 20 microsatellites markers and their sanitary status was analyzed with ELISA assays. Planting occurred in 2015, 2016 and completed in 2017. The fresh weight of each plant was determined at grafting and the pruning weight of each vine has been recorded annually since the plantation.
Results ‐ Phenotypic data were analyzed according to the parentage with the three main genetic background (V. riparia, V. rupestris, V. berlandieri). The weight of each plant at the grafting time and the pruning weight since the plantation were assessed. The significant relation between these variables was discussed taking into account annual data sets. The first results showed that the range of conferred vigor among the rootstock panel was large enough to identify the required diversity, necessary to fit different production objectives in the French vineyard.
Overall, GreffAdapt is a very unique experimental facility to speed up the selection of rootstocks and to analyze the relationship between conferred vigor and drought tolerance, two major selection criteria for rootstocks.

Influence of nitrogen supply on colorimetric parameters of Lugana wines

Color is one of the main qualitative parameters of a wine. As a matter of fact, immediately after having opened a bottle of wine, color, even before aroma and taste, is the first sensorial parameter to be evaluated by the consumer It can change according to various factors depending on the characteristics of the grapes or on the different production and storage processes.

Zonazione dell’area viticola doc durello

Il lavoro di zonazione riveste un ruolo importante per capire le potenzialità e la vocazionalità di una specifica area viticola. La viticoltura dovrebbe essere vista in funzione dell’obiettivo enologico che si vuole realizzare e quindi particolare importanza riveste il risultato delle vinificazioni delle uve provenienti dai vigneti delle diverse aree della zona di produzione oggetto d’indagine. La zonazione dell’area a DOC Monti Lessini Durello ha preso in esame la varietà “Durella”, vitigno autoctono del territorio, che rappresenta la maggior parte della produzione vitivinicola della zona.

Implication of secondary viral infections on grafting success rated in nurseries

Grapevine grafting is a complex process that since the establishment of phylloxera has become mandatory for grapevine. Grafting success in grapevine nurseries considerably varies among years and batches with most variety/rootstock combinations reach a high success rate (between 75% and 90%), but some combinations show lower success rates of around 40-50%. The causes of this variation are unknown, although biotic stresses like those caused by some viral infections have been demonstrated to affect the process. European certification schemes for the vegetative propagation of the vine include five major viruses (Arabis mosaic virus, Grapevine Fanleaf Virus, Grapevine Fleck Virus, and Grapevine-associated Leafroll Virus 1 and 3).

A novel approach for the identification of new biomarkers of wine consumption in human urine using untargeted metabolomics

Wine is one of the most representative components of Mediterranean diet. Moderate wine intake together with food, has been positively correlated with reduced risk of many chronic diseases. This beneficial effect seems to be ascribed to elevated polyphenolic content of wine [1]. Traditional approaches for the identification of wine biomarkers consumption include targeted metabolomics that focuses on the quantification of well-defined metabolites, losing a valuable information about a massive number of compounds. On the other hand, untargeted metabolomics can disclose a large quantity of signals corresponding to potential biomarkers in a single analysis with high sensitivity and resolution.
