Optimization of in vitro establishment of grapevine varieties for fast micropropagation 

Abstract

Micropropagation is an important alternative to conventional methods of plant propagation. The objective of this study was to optimize a protocol for in vitro micropropagation of selected grapevine hybrids (H19 and H20) that are included in our breeding program. For the sprouting initiation experiment, nodal cuttings with only one axillary bud from two hybrids were separated, disinfected, and cultivated in 50% Murashige Skoog nutrient medium (½ MS) and Woody Plant Medium (WPM), adding 4.4 µM benzyladenine (BA) in both mediums. To optimize root induction, the sprouts obtained were cultivated in ½ MS and WPM, testing doses of 2, 4 and 8 µM Indole Acetic Acid (IAA) respectively. According to the results, the highest percentage of sprouted buds was obtained in ½ MS + 4.4 µM BA for H19 and H20 (79 and 82%, respectively) at 14 days. At 28 days, the percentage was lower in all of cases. Regarding the rooted sprouts, the highest percentage obtained was 52% in the WPM medium for H19 and 46% in the WPM + 4µM IAA medium for H20 at 14 days. At 28 days, however, the highest percentage of rooted shoots was in ½ MS + 2µM AIA medium for H19 and H20 (89 and 93%, respectively). In conclusion, the best way to micropropagate these hybrids in a short period of time is ½ MS + 4.4 µM BA and WPM for H19, and ½ MS + 4.4µM BA and WPM + 4µM IAA for H20.

Energy partitioning and functionality of photosystem II in water-stressed grapevines during heatwaves revealed by continuous measurements of chlorophyll fluorescence

The increased intensity and frequency of heatwaves, coupled with prolonged periods of drought, are a significant threat to viticulture worldwide. During these conditions the more exposed leaves can show visible symptoms of heat damage. We monitored the functionality of photosystem II (PSII) in the field to better understand the impact of heatwaves on canopy performance. A factorial experiment was established in summer 2023 using Shiraz grapevines in the Barossa valley of South Australia, involving water-stressed and well-watered vines.

An excessive leaf-fruit ratio reduces the yeast assimilable nitrogen in the must

Yeast assimilable nitrogen (YAN) in the grape must is a key variable for wine quality as a source of aroma precursors. In a situation of YAN deficiency, a foliar urea application upon the vine at veraison enhances YAN concentration and facilitates must fermentation. In 2013, Agroscope investigated the impact of leaf-fruit ratio on the nitrogen (N) assimilation and partitioning in grapevine Vitis vinifera cv. Chasselas following foliar-urea application with the aim of improving its efficiency on the YAN concentration.

A DNA-free editing approach to help viticulture sustainability: dual editing of DMR6-1 and DMR6-2 enhances resistance to downy mildew 

The sustainability of viticulture hinges on maintaining quality and yield while reducing pesticide use. Promising strides in this direction involve the development of clones with enhanced disease tolerance, particularly through the knockout of plant susceptibility genes. Knocking out of Downy Mildew Resistant 6 (DMR6) led to increased levels of endogenous salicylic acid (SA), a regulator of immunity, resulting in enhanced tolerance to Downy Mildew (DM) and other diseases in various crops.
