Estimation of stomatal conductance and chlorophyll fluorescence in Croatian grapevine germplasm under water deficit    

Abstract

Water deficit profoundly impacts the quality of grapes and results in considerable reductions in crop yield. First symptoms manifest with reduced stomatal conductance and transpiration, accompanied by the wilting of apical leaves and tendrils. So far, there is no available data on the water stress response in Croatian grapevine germplasm. Therefore, objective of this study was to determine influence of genotype and treatment on stomatal conductance (gsw), transpiration (E), electron transport rate (ETR), and quantum efficiency in light (PhiPS2). In this research we observed the initial response to water deficit of 84 unique genotypes, 70 Vitis vinifera subsp. vinifera and 14 Vitis vinifera subsp. sylvestris accessions. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse in both 2022 and 2023, involving self-rooted cuttings exposed to water stress and compared to a well-watered control. Multifactorial analysis of variance was used to examine the effects of genotype, treatment, replicate, date and time of measurement on gsw, E, ETR, PhiPS2. In both years gsw and E were significantly influenced by all parameters except replicate, while ETR wasn’t significantly influenced by treatment in second year and PhiPS2 in first year. Due to the observed significance of the interaction between genotype and treatment across all parameters in both years, we employed the pairwise comparisons of treatment levels within each genotype with Bonferroni correction. In this study, a non-destructive high-throughput method for rapid screening of the initial physiological response to water deficit is briefly presented, in which the grapevine genotypes studied are divided into two distinct groups.

NEW TOOL FOR SIMULTANEOUS MEASUREMENT OF OXYGEN CONSUMPTION AND COLOUR MODIFICATIONS IN WINES

Measuring the effect of oxygen consumption on the colour of wines as the level of dissolved oxygen decreases over time is very useful to know how much oxygen a wine is able to consume without significantly altering its colour. The changes produced in wine after being exposed to high oxygen concen-trations have been studied by different authors, but in all cases the wine has been analysed once the oxygen consumption process has been completed. This work presents the results obtained with the use of an equipment designed and made to measure simultaneously the level of dissolved oxygen and the spectrum of the wine, during the oxygen consumption process from saturation levels with air to very low levels, which indicate the total consumption of the dosed oxygen.

Barrel-to-Barrel Variation of Color and Phenolic Composition in Barrel-Aged Red Wine

Tangible variation of sensory characteristics is often perceived in wine aged in similar barrels. This variation is mostly explained by differences in the wood chemical composition, and in the production of the barrels. Despite these facts, the literature concerning barrel-to-barrel variation and its effect on wine sensory and chemical characteristics is very scarce [1]. In this study, the barrel-to-barrel variation in barrel-aged wines was examined in respect of the most important phenolic compounds of oenological interest and chromatic characteristics, considering both the effects of the (individual) barrel and cooperage. A red wine was aged in 49 new medium-toasted oak (Quercus petraea) barrels, from four cooperages, for 12 months
