Freeze-thaw temperature oscillations promote increased differential gene expression during grapevine bud dormancy

Abstract

In northern cold climate conditions, chilling requirement fulfillment in dormant grapevine buds is slowed or stopped by subzero temperatures impacting the transcriptional processes needed to complete chilling requirement. Cabernet Franc and Reisling in Geneva, NY were used to determine the impact of natural oscillating temperatures on grapevine bud transcriptional activity during light and dark periods of a two-week period in January with fluctuating diurnal winter temperatures. Cabernet Franc and Reisling bud samples were collected at 32 time points during the natural vineyard temperature cycle at 6:00 (dark), 14:00 (light) and 18:00 (dark) hours) to monitor gene expression in consecutive freezing and non-freezing temperature oscillations. Genotype, light and dark, and temperature oscillations conditions were explored. Four distinct conditions were analyzed 1) genotype difference with constant light/dark temperature conditions; 2) light vs dark with similar temperature conditions; 3) buds in light (14:00) at >0C vs <0C; 4) buds in dark (6:00 or 18:00) at >0C vs <0C; 4). Principal components analysis indicated that genotype accounted for 66% of variance and there were 1,916 and 1,559 differentially expressed genes (DEG) up and down regulated respectively, in Reisling relative to Cabernet Franc. A greater number of DEG were identified for light relative to dark samples (14:00 vs 6:00 or 18:00) and samples collected at temperatures >0C vs <0C. Gene pathway analysis showed significant positive enrichment in hormone signaling and secondary metabolite pathways in both genotypes in the >0C relative <0C temperature conditions indicating transient temperature changes enhance the metabolic activity of dormant buds.

NEUROPROTECTIVE AND ANTI-INFLAMMATORY PROPERTIES OF HYDROXYTYROSOL: A PROMISING BIOACTIVE COMPONENT OF WINE

Hydroxytyrosol (HT) is a phenolic compound present in olives, virgin olive oil and wine. HT has attracted great scientific interest due to its biological activities which have been related with the ortho-dihydroxy conformation in the aromatic ring. In white and red wines, HT has been detected at concentrations ranging from 0.28 to 9.6 mg/L and its occurrence has been closely related with yeast metabolism of aromatic amino acids by Ehrlich pathway during alcoholic fermentation. One of the most promising properties of this compound is the neuroprotective activity against pathological mechanisms related with neurode-generative disorders including Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease.

Oak wood seasoning: impact on oak wood chemical composition and sensory quality of wine

Oak wood selection and maturation are essential steps in the course of barrel fabrication. Given the existence of many factors involved in the choice of raw material and in natural seasoning of oak wood, it is very difficult to determine the real impact of seasoning and selection factors on oak wood composition. A sampling was done to study the evolution of oak wood chemical composition during four seasoning steps: non matured, 12 months, 18 months and 24 months. For this sampling, three selection factors were taken into account: age, grain type and the Polyphenolic Index measured by Oakscan®. Besides extractables
(~10%), three polymers constitute the main part of oak wood: cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignins.
