Impact of the ‘Pinot’-family on early ripening in cool climate viticulture varieties

Abstract

‘Pinot Precoce Noir’ (PPN) is an early ripening clone of ‘Pinot Noir’ (PN). The phenological differentiation is visible by an about two weeks earlier onset of veraison. It was found that the early veraison locus Ver1 on chromosome 16, previously identified in ‘Calardis Musqué’, originated from PPN. A highly correlated SSR marker, namely GF16-Ver1,was developed and tested for its ability to molecularly differentiate between PPN and PN as well as its potential to trace individual descendants. GF16-Ver1 shows a 2bp difference in fragment size, which is sufficiently descriptive to discriminate between the original PN allele and the mutant Ver1 allele of PPN associated to early veraison. All screened cultivars showing the specific fragment sizes of the veraison affecting PN or PPN allele, appeared to be related to the Pinot family, demonstrating its unique character. Grouping of cultivars based on the fragment length of GF16-Ver1 matched with known pedigrees and allowed a reliable allocation of entire family trees to their respective PN or PPN founder. Additionally, grouping of cultivars by the GF16-Ver1 marker demonstrated the phenological significance and descriptive value. The marker enables an easy screening of genetic resources and breeding material using established SSR-based marker-assisted selection pipelines. The use of GF16-Ver1 will help breeders to adapt their breeding programs for cool-climate viticulture to the challenges of climate change through counter-selection of Ver1. It will also help to elucidate all early ripening PPN descendants on a genetic basis and demonstrate the high relevance of this locus in current cool-climate varieties.

Hplc-ms analysis of carotenoids as potential precursors for 1,1,6-trimethyl-1,2-dihydronaphthalene (TDN) in riesling grapes

In recent years, an undesirable premature “aged” character has been noticed in a growing number of young Riesling wines, associated with extreme weather conditions leading to increased radiation intensity and/ or sun exposure of grapes.

REDWINE project: use of Chlorella vulgaris to prevent biotic and abiotic stress in Palmela’s region, Portugal, vineyards

The new EU Green Deal aims to achieve GHG emissions reduction by at least 55% by 2030 and a climate neutral EU economy by 2050.
REDWine concept will be realized through the establishment of an integrated Living Lab demonstrating the viability of the system at TRL 7. The Living Lab will be able to utilize 2 ton of fermentation off-gas/year (90% of total CO2 produced in the fermenter) and 80 m3 of liquid effluent (100% of the liquid effluent generated during fermenter washing) to produce 1 ton (dry weight) of Chlorella biomass/year. This biomass will be processed under a downstream extraction process to obtain added-value extracts and applied in food, cosmetic and agricultural end-products and to generate a new EcoWine. REDWine will focus on the recovery of off-gas from a 20.000L fermenter of red wine production existing in Adega Cooperativa de Palmela (ACP, located in Palmela, Portugal).

Vino e paesaggio: materiali per il governo del territorio vitivinicolo. Il piano regolatore delle città del vino

S’intende per Piano Regolatore delle Città del Vino la metodologia per redigere la parte strutturale dello strumento comunale di governo del territorio. Parliamo, infatti, del principale strumento comunale di governo del territorio, così come è venuto maturando nella riflessione delle Città del Vino, strumento che si misura con la sfida di governare tutto il territorio in modo coerente e sostenibile, a partire dal riconoscimento del valore del “sistema vigneto” e della sua intrinseca fragilità.

Impact of the fumaric acid/glutathione pair addition before bottling on Cabernet Sauvignon wine quality

Over the last decades, climate change and rising temperatures have impacted the wine industry. Wines from warm regions tend to have a higher pH and lower total acidity.

Exploring intra-vineyard variability with sensor- and molecular-based approaches 

The application of remote and proximal sensing is a fast and efficient method to monitor grapevine vegetative and physiological parameters and is considered valuable to derive information on associated yield and quality traits in the vineyard. Further details can be obtained by the application of molecular analysis at the gene expression level aiming at elucidating how pathways controlling the formation of different grape quality traits are influenced by spatial variability. This work aims at evaluating intra-vineyard variability in grape composition at harvest and at comparing this with remotely sensed canopy vegetation data and molecular-based approaches.
