A comprehensive and accurate annotation for the grapevine T2T genome 

Abstract

Addressing the opportunities and challenges of genomics methods in grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) requires the development of a comprehensive and accurate reference genome and annotation. We aimed to create a new gene annotation for the PN40024 grapevine reference genome by integrating the highly accurate and complete T2T assembly and the manually curated PN40024.v4 annotation. Here, we present a novel workflow to enhance the annotation of the T2T genome by incorporating past community input found in PN40024.v4. The pipeline’s containerization will improve the workflow’s reproducibility and flexibility, facilitating its inclusion as a shared workflow on the Grapedia portal, the grapevine genomics encyclopedia. The pipeline includes both structural and functional annotation of genes, including lncRNAs and miRNAs. Moreover, we provide conversions between different annotation versions, allowing the comparison and integration of various grapevine datasets. To ensure transparency and traceability, we have modified the structure of the gene IDs, retaining the Vitvi prefix but also referencing the genome version and annotation. This will allow us to handle any gene model issues between different annotation versions and to easily distinguish the version from the annotation in publications. The annotation workflow will soon be available on the Grapedia portal (https://grapedia.org/), where it can potentially be applied to other cultivars. This annotation version will also serve as the basis for the new grape gene reference catalogue, which will provide a comprehensive and updated resource for grapevine genomics.

Prolonged water deficits driven by climate change are increasingly affecting the viticultural sector highlighting the need for drought-tolerant rootstocks.

Organic mulches improve vine vigour, yield and physiological response in a semi-arid region

Recycled organic mulch within the row in vineyard floor management has become an interesting ecological strategy to adapt the crop to climate change consequences in semi-arid regions.
This study aimed to assess the impact of three recycled organic mulches [straw (STR), grape pruning debris (GPD), and spent mushroom compost (SMC)] and two conventional soil management practices [herbicide (HERB) and under-row tillage (TILL)] on vegetative vigour (NDVI), production (kg/plant), and physiological parameters (δ13C in grapes and leaf gas exchange during four grapevine phenology stages). Additionally, temperature and water soil parameters were collected at three soil depths. Data was collected during the 2021 and 2022 grapevine growing seasons in La Rioja, Spain.

Determination of selected phenolics, carotenoids and norisoprenoids in Riesling grapes after treatment against sunburn damage

Riesling represents the most widely cultivated grape variety in Germany and is therefore of particular economic interest. During recent years an increase in the petrol-note as well as in undesirable bitter and adstringent notes has been reported. These changes are most likely linked to increasing temperature and sunlight exposure of grapes due to climate changes.
The “petrol note” is caused by the formation of the C13-norisoprenoid 1,1,6-trimethyl-1,2-dihydronaphthalin (TDN), which originates from acid-labile precursors formed by the carotenoid degradation in the grape.
