Which potential for Near Infrared Spectroscopy to characterize rootstock effects on grapevines?

Abstract

Developing rootstocks adapted to environmental constraints constitutes a key lever for grapevine adaptation to climate change. In this context, Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) could be used as a high-throughput phenotyping technique to simplify the study of rootstocks in grafted situations. This study is an exploratory analysis to evaluate the potential of NIRS acquired on grafted tissues to reveal rootstock effects as well as the plasticity of combinations of scion/rootstock to better characterize these interactions.
Through the study of 25 combinations (5 scions times 5 rootstocks) in a dedicated experimental vineyard, we showed that NIRS obtained from grafted tissues capture rootstock and scion/rootstock interaction signals, up to 20% of the total variance at specific wavelengths. Yet, the scion effect on the spectra remains dominant over the rootstock effect, which is also the case for agronomic traits. Using NIRS data on dried leaves, which were found to best capture the rootstock effect compared to measurements on wood or fresh leaves, spectral wavelengths specific to the rootstock effect could be identified.
Predictions at the vine level carried out on twenty-eight phenotypic traits showed that those related to phenology and vigor being were better predicted. Three spectral regions were consistently identified as contributing to predictions and to differences between scion/rootstock combinations. Using data from these regions yielded predictive models as accurate as those built with the entire spectral range, underlining that NIRS capture useful information related to the combination rootstock/scion which opens prospects towards the possibility of using this methodology in a breeding context.

Harvest dates, climate, and viticultural region zoning in Greece

Climate is clearly one of the most important factors in the success of all agricultural systems, influencing whether a crop is suitable to a given region, largely controlling crop production and quality, and ultimately driving economic sustainability. Today many assessments of a region’s climate comes from a combination of station and spatial climate data analyses that facilitate the evaluation of the general suitability for viticulture and potential wine styles, allows for comparisons between wine regions, and offers growers a measure of assessing appropriate cultivars and sites.

A comparative study on physiological responses to drought in wild Vitis species 

The crossings of three wild Vitis species are commonly used as rootstocks in wine production worldwide. Factors such as disease resistance and vigor are most important for their selection.
With climate change extending drought conditions and water limitations, the selection of rootstocks conferring increased tolerance to drought takes on greater importance. Therefore, identifying Vitis species with improved drought tolerance and incorporating them into breeding programs could contribute to more resilient rootstocks under water limiting conditions. Furthermore, those species serve as a valuable resource to increase genetic variability of rootstocks. We hypothesize that species native to drier habitats will exhibit superior physiological performance under drought stress.
