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.

Influence of nitrogen supply on colorimetric parameters of Lugana wines

Color is one of the main qualitative parameters of a wine. As a matter of fact, immediately after having opened a bottle of wine, color, even before aroma and taste, is the first sensorial parameter to be evaluated by the consumer It can change according to various factors depending on the characteristics of the grapes or on the different production and storage processes.

Grapevine productivity modelling in the Portuguese Douro Region

In Portugal, and particularly in the Demarcated Region of Douro (DDR), wine production has a great tradition, producing the unique and worldwide famous Port wine as well as other remarkably good table wines. In this study the impact of projected climate change to wine production is analysed for the DDR. A statistical grapevine yield model (GYM) is developed using climate parameters as predictors.

Biological control of the vineyard: new microbiological findings from CREA-VE

According to the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO), 75.866 km2 of the world is dedicated to grape cultivation. About 71.0% of the world’s grape production is destined for winemaking, 27.0% for consumption as fresh fruit and 2.0% as raisin. Grape production is mainly hindered by fungal infections, that can develop both in field and post-harvest.

The French grapevine breeding program resdur: state of the art and perspectives

The French grapevine breeding program for durable resistance to downy and powdery mildew (INRAE-ResDur) was initiated more than 20 years ago to help reduce the heavy use of plant protection products and provide a durable mean to cope with a strong pathogen pressure. This program has now proved to be effective, with about ten new varieties already officially registered. However, there is still a lot to be done (1) to reduce the duration of each breeding cycle, (2) to diversify disease factors’ pyramiding and anticipate emerging diseases, (3) to work towards larger adoption of the new resistant varieties. New breeding schemes incorporating for example genomic prediction of breeding values are being evaluated to accelerate genetic gains, saving cost and time while handling complex traits.
