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.

Aroma compounds involved in the fruity notes of red wines potentially adapted to climate change.

Currently, climate change represents one of the major issues for the wine sector. The increasing temperature already recorded and expected in the upcoming years reduce the vegetative cycle of the grape varieties planted in Bordeaux area, affecting the physicochemical parameters of grapes and consequently, the quality of wine. From a sensory point of view, the attenuation of the fresh fruity character in some varietals is accompanied by the accentuation of dried-fruit notes [1]. As a new adaptive and ecological strategy on global warming, some winegrowers have initiated changes in the Bordeaux blend of vine varieties using late-ripening grape varieties [2]. 

Launching the GiESCO guide

Considering that the transfer of research results to the professional level is one of the keys to progress, GiESCO proposes to publish a technical guide supported by scientific references and in the form of standard sheets.

Influence of soil type on juice quality in a vineyard from DO Ca Rioja

Soil plays an important role in wine quality, especially its water holding capacity because it affects the balance between vigour and grape yield. The aim of this work was to study the influence of different soil types on the must quality in a vineyard at DO Ca Rioja

Can the satellite image resolution be improved to support precision agriculture in the vineyard through vegetation indices?

Aim: This study aims to show the application of a new methodological approach to improve the resolution of Sentinel-2A images and derived vegetation indices through the results from different vineyards. 

Évaluation environnementale de pratiques vitivinicoles innovantes

The Institut Français De La Vigne Et Du Vin (IFV) is conducting many experiments on innovative winegrowing practices, which are emerging in companies in the sector, or which are still at the R&D stage for agricultural suppliers. The purpose of these practices may be to reduce environmental impact, to adapt vineyards to climate change, or to achieve other technical, economic or social aims. Whatever the objective, it is necessary to verify the relevance of these new practices, and in particular their environmental relevance, i.e. That at the very least, the changes in practices do not increase the environmental impact of the technical itineraries.
