Development and application of CRISPR/Cas in grapevine

Abstract

The development and application of CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats)/Cas (CRISPR-associated protein) technologies have revolutionized genome editing in plants due to its simplicity, high efficiency, and versatility. As an economically important fruit crop worldwide, grapevine genome editing using CRISPR/Cas technologies has also been reported these years.  Here we introduce the development briefly of the most popular CRISPR/Cas9 system and also the state-of-the-art CRISPR technologies developed so far. Moreover, we summarize CRISPR/Cas9-mediated applications for gene functional study and trait improvement in grapevine. Optimization of CRISPR/Cas9 system, as well as the other CRISPR/Cas systems including CRISPR/LbCas12a and base editor in grapevine genome editing, is also discussed. In addition, we discuss the challenges and future perspectives for precision genome editing in grapevine, expecting to present a roadmap for the future applications of CRISPR technology in this species.

Aromatic maturity is a cornerstone of terroir expression in red wine

In this video recording of the IVES science meeting 2023, Stéphanie Marchand (University of Bordeaux, ISVV, INRAE, UMR 1366 OENOLOGIE, Villenave d’Ornon, France) speaks about the aromatic maturity as a cornerstone of terroir expression in red wine. This presentation is based on an original article accessible for free on OENO One.

Effect of pre-fermentative addition of oenological tannins on the volatile composition and colour characteristics of white wines

This study investigates the effect of pre-fermentative addition of oenological tannins on basic physicochemical parameters, total polyphenols index (TPI), antioxidant activity (DPPH method), colour traits, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) of white wines made from ‘Vermentino’ or ‘Erbaluce’ grapes (Vitis vinifera).

Agronomic and oenological characterization of the intraspecific cross ‘Passau’ in the aim of its commercial use

The study of new wine grape cultivars can be interesting to diversify the local wine productions without using international varieties. With this aim some Vitis vinifera intraspecific crosses obtained by Prof. Dalmasso in the 1930s and registered in the Italian National Catalogue in 1977, have been studied in the last years.

Identification of important genomic regions controlling resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses in Vitis sp. through QTL meta-analysis

In the context of global change, the environmental conditions are expected to be more stressful for viticulture. The choice of the rootstock may play a crucial role to improve the adaptation of viticulture to new biotic and abiotic threats (Ollat et al., 2016). However, the selection of interesting traits in rootstock breeding programs is complex because of the combination of multiple targets in a same ideotype. In this sense, the integration of studies about the genetic architecture for desired biotic and abiotic response traits allow us to identify genomic regions to combine and those with interesting pleiotropic effects.
