The grapevine single-berry clock, practical tools and outcomes 

Abstract

The dynamic sequence of physiological events along the three-months of berry development from anthesis to ripe stage has been thoroughly investigated. Most studies were performed on average samples, taking care to crush enough fruits to fairly represent the overall trend of the future harvest. However, phenological stages like 30% caps off (EL25) highlights the asynchronous nature of this population. Consequently, softening, onset of sugar accumulation and coloration were melted by asynchrony in a developmental mumbo jumbo, until their respective timing could be clarified by single berries approaches. To alleviate any statistical bias from pooling unsynchronized fruits, we have gathered a set of approaches on single berries, including non-destructive analysis of time-lapse images, Near InfraRed Spectrometry, basic phenotyping, transcriptomics and metabolomics. In this pertinent reference system, the sugar and acid pathways noticeably accelerated and metabolic transitions were sharpened. Transcripts encoding membrane transporters abruptly switched on during either growth phases were identified, enlightening the special design and bioenergetics of the phloem unloading and vacuolar accumulation pathways, in full quantitative agreement with our new appraisal of the sugar/acidity ratio. Single berries did not depart from strict developmental paths on PCAs from transcriptomic or metabolomic data. It led to the identification of a very small set of genes differentially expressed between clones, without interfering with developmentally regulated ones. This study shows that single berry omics alleviates random noise and temporal ambiguities inherent to mixed fruits, thereby improving the accuracy of the molecular clocks to just a few days.

The influence of culture medium on the dynamics of fermentation of wine yeasts

Wine yeast strains Saccharomyces ellipsoideus have important applications in food industry and in this regard is sought isolation as pure cultures and selecting those strains, which in laboratory investigations which have great biotechnological properties This study was intended as the ratio of live cells and autolysates cells also the influence of culture medium on this report. Yeasts selected for this study were isolated from industrial strains of indigenous grape varieties, namely: Feteasca Royal (FR) Feteasca White (FA), black Feteasca (FN), Romanian Tamaioasa (TR), Babeasca Black (BN) and Cotnari Grasa (GC).

Dalle zonazioni storiche alle “nuove forestazioni storiche produttive vitivinicole” per la valorizzazione delle cultivar e dei prodotti tipici ed originali dei Monti Iblei

Analisi sulle zonizzazioni storiche, sulle produzioni tipiche ed originali e sulla “forestazione classica” per impostare innovative zonazioni vitivinicole e dei prodotti tipici, originali attraverso la “Nuova forestazione storica produttiva”. Le recenti ricerche ed attività svolte sulle zonizzazioni storiche, sulle produzioni tipiche ed originali e sulla “forestazione classica” dei Monti Iblei (Ragusa) (I) hanno permesso di rilanciare le produzioni tipiche ed originali vitivinicole in un innovativo programma integrato tra zonazione (“Grande Zonazione”) e “Nuova forestazione storica produttiva” (“Grande Forestazione Produttiva”) di questo importante territorio.

AGEING BOTTLED WINES SUBMERGED IN SEA: DOES IT IMPACT WINE COMPOSITION?

Aging wines is a common practice in oenology, which in recent years has undergone some innovations. Currently, we are witnessing the practice of aging bottled wine in depth, immersed in the sea or in reservoirs, for variable periods of time, but so far, little is known about the impact of aging in depth on the physicochemical properties, of wines.
The objective of this work was to evaluate the impact of this practice on the physicochemical characteristics, in particular to verify changes in the volatile composition of wines bottled and subsequently immersed in depth. A red wine from Cabernet Sauvignon was bottled and a set of bottles were submerged from July to February (2020), another set of bottles were submerged from February to September (2020) and another set was kept in the wine cellar. Bottles from each set were analyzed (in triplicate) in July 2021.
