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.

Modeling sugar accumulation dynamics of a wide variety of grape cultivars (Vitis vinifera L.)

Climate change is a major challenge in wine production. The IPCC (2014) projected that by the end of the 21st century average temperatures will increase by 1-3.7°C. Consequently, harvest dates could advance by approximately 30 days. A general observed trend is the increase in berry sugar content and decrease in organic acids, posing challenges for winegrowers. Variability among cultivars is a precious resource to adapt viticulture to a changing environment.

Viticultural sites and their valorisation in Istria (Croatia)

Pratiquement tout le territoire d’Istrie possède les bonnes conditions naturelles pour la viticulture, laquelle dans ce lieu a une tradition millénaire. La viticulture était et reste toujours la plus importante branche de production agraire et d’économie. Les sites viticoles en Istrie sont caractérisés par des diverses conditions naturelles.

The importance of free trade agreements and non tariffs measures in a context of resurgent retaliatory trade measures against wine

Most of the issues surrounding trade in wine and spirits focus on the fight against non-tariff measures.

Acumulación de materia seca, orientada a valorar la fijación de carbono, en función del aporte de riego y la pluviometría, en Cabernet-Sauvignon a lo largo de 15 años

The vineyard is capable of fixing carbon in its permanent structure from atmospheric carbon dioxide, through the process of gas exchange and the performance of photosynthesis. The photosynthetic capacity of the vineyard depends on the water resources that the plant may have at its disposal, so the amount of dry matter, derived from the processed photosynthates, that it can store will depend on the water regime of the crop, both in the annually renewable organs as in permanent parts.

Do we have convergence or divergence in firms’ production and business practices in the global wine industry? 

Wine production is a globally significant and intricate industry, characterized by diverse regions, grape varieties, and producers. Competitive advantage in wine production and marketing arises from localized natural attributes known as terroir, combined with transferable expertise in agronomic practices, winemaking methods, packaging, distribution, and marketing. Wine is a very globalized product with 40% of the total output exported. Globalization has prompted discussions on convergence of business and production practices across industries, driven by technological progress and adoption of international standards. However, persisting differences in cultural norms, institutional frameworks, and regulatory environments hinder full convergence.
