VitExpress, an open interactive transcriptomic platform for grapevine

Abstract

We developed VitExpress, an open interactive transcriptomic platform for grapevine, using our newly assembled and annotated Chasselas genome as a reference. This platform provides a genome browser and integrated web tools for expression profiling, and a set of statistical tools (StatTools) for the identification of highly correlated genes. The implementation of the correlation finder tool for MybA1, a major regulator of the anthocyanin pathway, identified candidate genes associated with anthocyanin metabolism, whose expression patterns were experimentally validated as discriminating between black and white grapes. These resources and innovative tools for mining genome-related data are anticipated to foster advances in several areas of grapevine research.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi as a sustainable approach to improve grapevine fitness in a changing climate

Increasing pressures from both biotic and abiotic stresses threaten grapevine health and vineyard productivity worldwide. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) inoculants have been shown to offer a promising bio-based alternative to mitigate abiotic stress and pathogen attack by enhancing nutrient uptake, water relations, and plant defence mechanisms.
