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.

The nitrogen isotope ratio (δ15N): exploration of a very large dataset for a better understanding of this indicator in viticulture

Isotopic analysis have been proven to be particularly useful within the wine industry, either for water stress characterization (with the δ13C) or for countering potential wine fraud (with the use of δ18O, δ13C and δ2H) (Santesteban et al., 2014).

Composition and extractability of grape anthocyanin glucosides under different environmental conditions: terroir and vintage effects

Two terroirs of the Eger Wine District (a steep-sloped and a flat vineyard) were examined in two years in order to describe the changes in the concentration and composition of berry skin/wine anthocyanins of the Kékfrankos variety at different harvest dates and to examine a possible relationship between the extractability of anthocyanin glucosides and terroir/vintage characteristics.

Study on the impact of clone on the varietal aroma of Xinomavro

It is well documented that varietal aroma is an important parameter of wine quality. Chemical compounds responsible for wine varietal aroma are sourced from secondary grape metabolites. Until today little research is conducted on the influence of vine clone on the grape aromatic content of Greek grape varieties. Xinomavro (Vitis vinifera L.) is one of the most important Greek grape varieties, valuable for the wine industry of Northern Greece since it contributes to the production of PDO wine of Naoussa, Amindeo and Goumenissa.

The dynamics of δ13C and δ18O in musts during berries development

Aim: Many processes or reactions that occur in plants involved isotopic discrimination. Water availability, for example, affects the isotopic ratio of carbon (δ13C) and oxygen (δ18O). In viticulture, δ13C is used in experiments related to water relations and irrigation in vineyards. δ18O is used much less but it could be a good complement to δ13C. The aim of this study was to generate knowledge on how these isotopic ratios, measured in musts, could help to better understand the water behavior of grape varieties.
