Phenotypical impact of a floral somatic mutation in the cultivar Listán Prieto

Abstract

The accession Criolla Chica Nº2 (CCN2) is catalogued as a floral mutation of cultivar Criolla Chica (synonym for cv. Listán Prieto). Contrary to what is observed in hermaphrodite-cultivated varieties like Criolla Chica, CCN2 exhibits a prevalence of masculinized flowers. Aiming to study the incidence and phenotypical implications of this mutation, CCN2 plants were deeply studied using Criolla Chica ‘Ballista’ (CCBA) as control plants. For each CCN2 plant, two inflorescences per shoot were sampled and segmented into proximal, mid and distal positions, relative to the pedicel. Flowers were observed through magnifying lens and classified according to OIV151 descriptor. CCN2 exhibited flowers of type 1 (masculinized) and 2 (intermediate), while CCBA exhibited only type 3 (hermaphrodite) flowers, as expected. CCN2 averaged more than 55% of type 1 flowers per cluster, which were predominant in the proximal position (63%), gradually diminishing towards distal positions. This distribution correlates with low fruit set rates towards proximal positions. In CCN2, a high percentage of inflorescence abscission per plant (avg. 50%) was observed, starting in stage EL-27. This phenomenon was not observed in CCBA. Additionally, histological sections of flowers at different developmental stages were performed. In type 1 flowers of CCN2, style and stigma tissues exhibited null development with atrophied ovules; these structures were present although poorly developed in type 2 flowers, potentially producing the few berries per cluster observed at harvest. Overall, the studied floral mutation identified in CCN2, strongly affects the development of female reproductive tissues and organs, drastically hindering fruit-set rate and cluster production.

Vitis v. corvina grapes composition and wine sensory profile as affected by different post harvest withering conditions

Context and purpose of the study – In Valpolicella area (Verona – Italy) Vitis vinifera cv. Corvina is the main wine variety to obtain, after grape withering, Amarone wine: this study was carried out in order to compare two different grape dehydration conditions with the aim of verifying the final composition of Corvina dried grapes and the organoleptic profile of corresponding Amarone wine.

Aptitude du cépage Chenin à l’élaboration de vins liquoreux en relation avec certaines unités terroirs de base de A.O.C. Coteaux du Layon

Massif and the first sedimentary formations of the western aureole of the Paris Basin. If it is found all over the world (California, Israel, South Africa), it is in this region that it best asserts its identity. It is one of the most interesting grape varieties due to the variety and complexity of the wines it can produce. It can give very dry or very sweet, still or sparkling wines, fresh when young and sublime when ageing, expressing the characteristics of each vintage as much as those of the terroir. The Chenin is a faithful witness of its geographical, geological, pedological and climatic environment; he is the foil of the land. It has strong aptitudes for the production of sweet wines conditioned by overripe grapes often botrytised in the AOC Coteaux du Layon.Massif and the first sedimentary formations of the western aureole of the Paris Basin.

Grape seed powder as an alternative to bentonite for wine fining

PR proteins can cause haze in wines, and the risk is to keep the wine unsold. Generally, in winemaking bentonite solves this problem by removing proteins, but it is not a renewable resource, has poor settling, which means difficulty in filtering after use and a considerable loss of wine, it is not a specific adsorbent and may reduce aromas and flavor compounds
