Key phenolic compounds in the pulp of new red-fleshed table grape hybrids: anthocyanins and flavonols 

Abstract

The cultivated area of table grapes worldwide has experienced a paramount increase over the last two decades. In this current scenario, traditional varieties are being replaced by new cultivars that prioritize a profitable and sustainable agriculture, while satisfying consumer demands. It is widely recognized that wine varieties, especially those with red berry flesh, are renowned for their high antioxidant capacity and phenolic compounds, which promote health. Recently, this topic has also gained significance in table grape breeding programs. The main objective of this work is to compare new hybrids of table grape (Alicante Bouschet cv. × Itumfifteen cv.) regards to their pulp phenolic compounds content. Three selections of new hybrids Non-Coloured Flesh (NCF) and Total Coloured Flesh (TCF) were analyzed for their individual phenolic compounds (phenolic acids, stilbenes, flavonols, and anthocyanins) during two consecutive seasons 2022 and 2023. The new TCF hybrids showed 2.9-fold higher flavonols in the berry pulp compared to NCF hybrids. Moreover, the anthocyanins content in the berry pulp of TCF grapes reported to be 20-fold higher than those of NCF hybrids. As expected, phenolic acids and stilbenes, were significantly enhanced in TCF hybrids compared to NCF hybrids. The presence of red berry flesh in table grapes not only adds a new characteristic to the market, this new cultivars are genetically enriched in healthy promoting compounds.

Anti/prooxidant activity of wine polyphenols in reactions of adrenaline auto-oxidation

Adrenaline (epinephrine) belongs to catecholamine class. It is a neurotransmitter and both a hormone which is released by the sympathetic nervous system and adrenal medulla in response to a range of stresses in order to regulate blood pressure, cardiac stimulation, relaxation of smooth muscles and other physiological processes. Adrenaline exhibits an effective antioxidant capacity (1). However, adrenalin is capable to auto-oxidation and in this case it generates toxic reactive oxygen intermediates and adrenochrome. Under in vitro conditions, auto-oxidation of adrenaline occurs in an alkaline medium (2).

Soil survey and chemical parameters evaluation in viticultural zoning

The most recent methodological developments in soil survey and land evaluation, that can be taken as reference in the viticultural field, go over usage of the GIS and database. These informatic tools, which begin to be widely utilised, consent to realise evaluations at different geographic scale and with different data quality and quantity in entrance.

Influenza del sito di coltivazione nella espressione aromatica del Moscato liquoroso di Pantelleria

ln 1997, twenty six cultivation sites of cv. Muscat of Alexandria different for pedological conditions, altitude and exposition were selected through ail Pantelleria isle. ln each site, described and classified according to USDA Soil Taxonony and FAO Soil Classification methods, grapes, collected at technological ripening, were microvinificated, following a standard procedure which allowed to obtain the naturally sweet wine DOC Moscato di Pantelleria. Wines, five months after vinification, were analysed by gaschromatography.

Mgaloblishvili Rpv29 and Rpv31 loci reveal new insights on downy mildew resistance sources in Vitis vinifera

Downy mildew, a disease caused by Plasmopara viticola (Berk. et Curt.) Berl. and De Toni, is one of the strongest threats to grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) production. Recently, sources of resistance to downy mildew were identified among Caucasian germplasm. Among them, the Georgian variety Mgaloblishvili revealed a unique resistance mechanism. A genome wide association study (GWAS) allowed the identification of the genetic bases of Mgaloblishvili resistance, the loci Rpv29, Rpv30 and Rpv31. To dissect the three resistance loci, Mgaloblishvili genome was sequenced using PacBio HiFi reads and assembled.
