Haplotype-resolved genome assemblies of Chasselas and Ugni Blanc

Root System Architecture (RSA) is crucial for plant resilience and resource uptake, yet remains underexplored in viticulture.

The ambition of the zonation of the Doc “Sangiovese di Romagna” is described as 25 siti sperimentali, aventi diversa origine geologica, in cui è stato individuato un vigneto omogeneo per la determinazione dei principali parametri viticoli ed enologici. In seguito è stato analizzato il contentto di stilbeni nei vini al fine di indepth il legame con le charatteristiche geopedologiche. The studio describes the positive relationship between the altitude and the content of the trans -piceide nelle province di Forlì and Ravenna and of the trans -resveratrolo a Ravenna. I suoli con maggiore calcare attivo hanno fornito vini più ricchi in stilbeni.

The Japanese beetle, Popillia japonica Newman, is considered one of the most harmful organisms due to its ability to feed on more than 300 plant species. Symptoms indicative of adult beetles include feeding holes in host plants extending to skeletonization of leaves when population numbers are high. The vine is one of the species most affected by this beetle. However, the damaged plants, even if with difficulty, manage to recover, bringing the bunches of grapes to ripeness.

The contemporary wine sector confronts a formidable array of challenges, including burgeoning production costs and the constricted availability of natural resources. Heightened consumer awareness regarding sustainability issues further compounds these pressures, compelling companies to adopt more judicious resource utilization strategies. In response to these imperatives, there is a growing recognition of the need to overhaul production methodologies within the wine industry with a view to minimizing inputs and eliminating waste.

The availability of water for irrigation is usually greater at the beginning of spring than in the following months, until the end of summer, in most regions of Spain.
