Somatic embryogenesis and polyploidy in grapevine: morphological shoot and leaf traits variations

Constitue une appellation d’origine “la dénomination géographique d’un pays, d’une région ou d’une localité servant à désigner un produit qui en est originaire, et dont la qualité ou les caractères sont dus exclusivement ou essentiellement au milieu géographique, comprenant les facteurs naturels et les facteurs humains …”

Proteins play a significant role in the colloidal stability and clarity of white wines [1]. However, under conditions of high temperatures during storage or transportation, the proteins themselves can self-aggregate into light-dispersing particles causing the so-called protein haze [2]. Formation of these unattractive precipitates in bottled wine is a common defect of commercial wines, making them unacceptable for sale [3]. Previous studies identified the presence of phenolic compounds in the natural precipitate of white wine [4], contributing to the hypothesis that these compounds could be involved in the mechanism of protein haze formation.

This study investigated the impact of the gsk/gse ratio on the evolution of acetaldehyde and of major phenolic compounds of aglianico wine in wine like solution and real wine. Four model solutions and the correspondant control wines were prepared. The natural weight ratio between grape skins and seeds was determined on the real grapes, and a control wine was obtained from those.

Da anni la ricerca viticola sta orientando le sue attenzioni verso lo studio della vocazionalità degli ecosistemi viticoli, perché fulcro della produttività della vite e qualità dei suoi frutti.

Avec l’accroissement des surfaces viticoles conduites en Bio, la question de l’impact de la présence de résidus de cuivre (seul anti fongique autorisé dans l’UE dans ce cadre Règlementaire) sur le déroulement des fermentations et sur les qualités œnologiques et organoleptiques des vins s’est révélée de plus en plus cruciale.
