Hyperspectral imaging and machine learning for monitoring grapevine physiology

Abstract

Rootstocks are gaining importance in viticulture as a strategy to combat abiotic challenges, as well as enhancing scion physiology and attributes. Therefore, understanding how the rootstock affects photosynthesis is insightful for genetic improvement of either genotype in the grafted grapevines. Photosynthetic parameters such as maximum rate of carboxylation of RuBP (Vcmax) and the maximum rate of electron transport driving RuBP regeneration (Jmax) have been identified as ideal targets for breeding and genetic studies. However, techniques used to directly measure these photosynthetic parameters are limited to the single leaf level and are time-consuming measurements. Hyperspectral remote sensing uses the optical properties of the entire vine to predict photosynthetic capacity at the canopy level. In this study, estimates of Vcmax and Jmax were assessed, in six different rootstocks with a common scion, using direct measurements and canopy reflectance obtained with hyperspectral wavelengths (400 to 1000 nm). Using artificial intelligence-based modeling, prediction models were developed for Marquette on the six different rootstock genotypes. Results for direct and indirect measures indicate that each rootstock promotes differences in scion Vcmax and Jmaxprofiles across the season. Application of machine learning and neural networks of spectral data provided good predictions of both photosynthetic parameters.

Additives od aids? Evaluation of aroma compounds release from oenological tannins of different botanical origins.

Oenological tannins are products extracted from various botanical sources, such as mimosa,
acacia, oak gall, quebracho, chestnut and tara. The polyphenolic component is obtained through a solid-liquid extraction also using specific solvents, then removed by evaporation or freeze-drying. Tannins are employed in two phases of winemaking, during the pre-fermentative phase or during fining with different purposes such as modulate antioxidant activity, colour stabilization, bacteriostatic activity, protein stabilization and modulation of sensory properties. To date, the current regulatory framework is not very clear. In fact, the Codex Alimentarius classifies commercial tannins as “food additives” but also as
“processing aids”. The main distinction is that “additives” have a technological function in the final food, whereas “processing aids” do not. In this sense, oenological tannins, despite the technological treatments, could contain aromatic compounds of the botanical species they belong to and release them to the wine.

Flooding responses on grapevine: a physiological, transcriptional and metabolic perspective

Studies on model plants have shown that temporary soil flooding exposes roots to a significant hypoxic stress resulting in metabolic re-programming, accumulation of toxic metabolites and hormonal imbalance. To date, physiological and transcriptional responses to flooding in grapevine are poorly characterized. To fill this gap, we aimed to gain insights into the transcriptional and metabolic changes induced by flooding on grapevine roots (K5BB rootstocks), on which cv Sauvignon blanc (Vitis vinifera L.) plants were grafted.

Effectiveness of “curettage” and rootstock over-grafting in the control of esca

Context and purpose of the study. The grapevine domestication requested the need of pruning, which expose the vines to trunk pathogens, leading to the spread of vine trunk diseases.

Within-vineyard variability in grape composition at the estate scale can be assessed through machine-learning modeling of plant water status in space and time. A case study from the hills of Adelaida District AVA, Paso Robles, CA, USA

Aim: Through machine-learning modelling of plant water status from environmental characteristics, this work aims to develop a model able to predict grape phenolic composition in space and time to guide selective harvest decisions at the estate scale.
