Data deluge: Opportunities, challenges, and lessons of big data in a multidisciplinary project

Abstract

Grapevine powdery mildew resistance is a key target for grape breeders and grape growers worldwide. The driver of the USDA-NIFA-SCRI VitisGen3 project is completing the pipeline from germplasm identification to QTL to candidate gene characterization to new cultivars to vineyards to consumers. This is a common thread across such projects internationally. We will discuss how our objectives and approaches leverage big data to advance this initiative, starting with genomics and computer vision phenotyping for gene discovery and genetic improvement. To manage and maintain resistances for long-term sustainability, growers will be trained through our nation-wide extension and outreach plan. Ultimately, consumers drive adoption of new varieties, and our socioeconomic research using eye-tracking will be briefly described. Across this multi-disciplinary research effort, big data presents opportunities, challenges, and lessons.

Evaluating the suitability of hyper- and multispectral imaging to detect endogenic diseases in grapevine

Endogenic diseases often arise from pathogens that exist within the plant tissue, including fungi, bacteria, and viruses, which can remain latent and then emerge under stress conditions or favorable environmental conditions, causing symptoms that weaken vines or can lead to plant death.

Il vino nobile di Montepulciano

C’è grande attenzione al rapporto tra zonazione e marketing. Mi sembra però che ci sia anco­ra oggi un salto fra le pratiche di analisi del terreno e di deterrninazione di quello che potremo definire “cru” e quello che può essere la sua utilizzazione rispetto ai consumatori finali.

Environmental effects on the secondary metabolites of PIWI cultivars across different locations in Italy

Grapevine breeding programs aim to develop cultivars that combine high productivity, oenological quality, disease resistance, and adaptability to diverse environmental conditions.

Viticultural zoning in the province of San Juan, Argentina. Preliminary results, year 2000

La région viticole de San Juan (Argentine) est marquée par des températures très élevées et des variations diurnes faibles. La valorisation de la connaissance de cet environnement et de ses interactions avec le fonctionnement de la vigne et le lien au vin passent par l’étude de ses terroirs et de leur caractérisation. Le point de départ de ce travail est l’étude des zones mésoclimatiques aptes à la culture de la vigne de la Province de San Juan et à la caractérisation des sols de cette même région. L’objectif est de définir le potentiel vitivinicole des zones considérées.

Caractérisation des relations hydriques sol/vigne dans un terroir languedocien

Par le fait d’une politique agricole communautaire axée sur des objectifs de qualité des produits, la recherche et l’identification des critères de cette qualité deviennent impératives. En viticulture, la notion de qualité du produit est rattachée au concept théorique de «terroir». Ce terme englobe un ensemble de paramètres du milieu (géologie, sol, climat) influant sur la récolte.
