Radiation-associated effects on regulated deficit irrigation management in grapevine cv. Cabernet Sauvignon

Abstract

The main challenge of regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) research is to isolate the factors that come with RDI, the direct effect of plant water status from the indirect ones like increased radiation and temperature changes on the cluster zone. This study aims to isolate the effects of vine water status from the effects of increased radiation on the phenolic composition of grapes subjected to RDI.

A three-year study on an RDI experiment where radiation was controlled was implemented in a commercial vineyard of Cabernet Sauvignon in Chile. Four RDI treatments based on partial evapotranspiration (ET) irrigation were established. Irrigation treatments were 100% ET, 70% ET, 50-100% ET (50% ET before veraison and 100% ET afterward), and 35-100% ET (35% ET before veraison and 100% ET afterward). Radiation in the cluster zone was measured on a weekly basis and shading nets were installed in part of the trial to reduce radiation as soon as the RDI treatment started to increase it. Also, leaf removal was applied to the control treatment to increase radiation at the same levels as RDI treatments. Anthocyanins, Flavan-3-ols, and Flavonols were measured at harvest.

Findings reveal that increased radiation on the control due to leaf removal does not reduce the concentration of flavan-3-ols and the water deficit effect is maintained in shaded vines. Regarding flavonols all of them increased due to radiation in the leaf removal control, some of them maintained the effect RDI in shaded vines like myricetin but others lost their effect like quercetin.

Regional discrimination of shiraz using targeted and non-targeted analytical approaches

Aims: Shiraz is the most widely cultivated grape variety in Australia, and is grown under a range of viticultural and climatic conditions. Given its importance to the Australian wine sector, a number of studies have been conducted in recent years which involved a comprehensive assessment of grape composition, in order to objectively predict wine quality and style outcomes.

White grape juice consumption reduce muscle damage parameters in combat athletes

Introduction and objective: the practice of physical exercises in an exhaustive way is related to damage. Muay thai (mt) is a high-intensity sport that demands agility, strength and power, which can lead to fatigue and muscle damage. Grape juice is rich in carbohydrates and antioxidants, which can delay the onset of fatigue and muscle damage. The objective of the study was to evaluate the impact of white grape juice consumption, during 14 days, on muscle damage parameters in tm athletes.
