Exploring the factors affecting spatio‐temporal variation in grapevine powdery mildew

A positive role of mannoproteins on wine stability and red wine mouth sensations has been widely described. Commercial mannoproteins are available and some yeast strains are offered with a higher formation of mannoproteins.

Expression of sensory attributes that reflect the varietal and geographical origin of wines (aka terroir) is central to perceived wine quality and reputation of wine producing regions.

Winemaking is a complex microbial process involving the co-existence and interactions of various microorganisms [1].

Il a été souvent démontré (Seguin, 1970), que les meilleurs terroirs sont ceux qui présentent pendant la période de maturation du raisin, une régulation et une limitation de l’alimentation hydrique de la vigne. Si on s’intéresse aux facteurs influençant ce régime hydrique, on constate le rôle prépondérant du taux d’éléments grossiers non poreux qui limitent la réserve utile du sol en diminuant le taux de terre fine. De plus, ces éléments grossiers jouent également un rôle au niveau du pédo-climat thermique car leur conductivité thermique et leur chaleur spécifique sont plus élevées que celles de la terre fine. Ainsi le sol se réchauffera et se refroidira plus rapidement (Saini et McLean, 1967), (Gras, 1994).

In its 2020 beating cancer plan, the european commission announced plans for mandatory warning signs for alcoholic beverages. However, no concrete legislative proposal has been put forward so far. Instead, ireland passed national legislation in 2023 that requires warning signs for all alcoholic beverages from 2026. Despite significant effects for the common market, the eu commission did not this challenge this law in the so-called tris notification procedure. We argue that the commission’s inaction is consistent with the case law of the european court of justice: in the absence of harmonized rules, member states have a large margin of discretion to enact national health measures.
