Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi as biomarkers of vineyard yield in Champagne

Abstract

Grapevines are colonized by a multitude of microorganisms (fungi, bacteria, oomycetes), mainly through roots in contact with the soil microbial reservoir. Some microorganisms cause disease and others have positive or negative effects on the plant (protection against pathogens, resistance to abiotic stress, improved nutrition). In addition to their functional roles, microorganisms respond rapidly to environmental changes (climate, cultivation practices), which could make them candidate biomarkers of the performance of the viticultural ecosystem. The aim of this study is (i) to test whether a positive relationship exists between microbial diversity and vineyard yield, (ii) to identify potential microorganisms that are biomarkers of high and stable yields over time, and (iii) to test whether arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are over-represented among these biomarkers. Vine plots with long-term contrasted yields were selected in Champagne based on multi-year records of yield. We sampled the vine roots and characterized the microbiota using metabarcoding approaches targeting bacterial and fungal communities. Our analyses revealed no relationship between microbial taxonomic diversity and grape yield. Using differential abundance analyses and supervised machine learning algorithms, we identified microbial biomarkers of high versus low yield in the root compartment. We identified 58 fungal and oomycete biomarkers, among which there were several AMFs. These AMFs were all biomarkers of high-yielding plots, suggesting a direct role in vine growth and productivity. These microbial biomarkers of stable and high yields will enable the development of diagnostic programs for the functioning of viticultural ecosystems.

Les champignons mycorhiziens à arbuscules comme biomarqueurs du rendement des vignobles en Champagne

La vigne est colonisée par une multitude de micro-organismes (champignons, bactéries, oomycètes) venant principalement du réservoir microbien constitué par le sol. Ces micro-organismes ont des effets positifs ou négatifs sur la vigne (protection contre les pathogènes, résistance aux stress abiotiques, amélioration de la nutrition, mais aussi déclenchement de maladies) (Fournier, Pellan et al. 2022). En plus de ces rôles fonctionnels, ils répondent rapidement aux changements environnementaux (climat, pratiques culturales) ce qui pourrait faire d’eux de bons bioindicateurs du fonctionnement de l’écosystème viticole. L’objectif de cette étude est (i) de tester s’il existe une relation positive entre diversité microbienne et rendement, (ii) d’identifier des micro-organismes bioindicateurs des rendements élevés et stables au cours du temps et (iii) de tester si les champignons mycorhiziens à arbuscules (CMAs) sont sur-représentés parmi ces bioindicateurs. Pour cela, des parcelles aux rendement contrastés ont été sélectionnées en Champagne sur la base de relevés pluriannuels. Nous avons ensuite échantillonné le sol, les racines et les feuilles puis caractérisé les microbiotes par des approches de métabarcoding ciblant les communautés bactériennes et fongiques. Nos analyses n’ont pas mis en évidence de relation entre la diversité taxonomique microbienne et le rendement. Avec des analyses différentielles d’abondance et des algorithmes d’apprentissage automatique supervisé, nous avons identifié des biomarqueurs du rendement dans chaque compartiment: 16 biomarqueurs dans les feuilles, 44 dans les racines et 101 dans le sol. Plusieurs CMAs font partie des bioindicateurs du compartiment racinaire et du sol. Ces CMAs sont tous associés aux parcelles à fort rendement, suggérant un rôle direct dans la croissance et la productivité des vignes. Ces bioindicateurs microbiens des rendements stables et élevés permettront de développer de programmes de diagnostic du fonctionnement des écosystèmes viticoles. 

Hongos micorrízicos arbusculares como biomarcadores del rendimiento del viñedo en Champaña

A vid está colonizada por multitud de microorganismos (hongos, bacterias, oomicetos) procedentes principalmente del reservorio microbiano constituido por el suelo. Estos microorganismos tienen efectos positivos o negativos sobre la vid (protección contra patógenos, resistencia al estrés abiótico, nutrición, pero también desencadenamiento de enfermedades) (Fournier, Pellan et al. 2022). Además de estos roles funcionales, responden rápidamente a los cambios ambientales (clima, prácticas culturales) que podrían convertirlos en buenos bioindicadores del funcionamiento del ecosistema vitivinícola. El objetivo de este estudio es (i) probar si existe una relación positiva entre la diversidad microbiana y el rendimiento, (ii) identificar microorganismos que sean bioindicadores de rendimientos altos y estables en el tiempo y (iii) probar si las micorrizas arbusculares Los hongos (HMA) están sobrerrepresentados entre estos bioindicadores. Para ello, se seleccionaron parcelas con rendimientos contrastantes en Champaña basándose en encuestas de varios años. Luego tomamos muestras del suelo, las raíces y las hojas y luego caracterizamos la microbiota utilizando enfoques de metacódigos de barras dirigidos a comunidades bacterianas y fúngicas. Nuestros análisis no resaltaron la relación entre la diversidad taxonómica microbiana y el rendimiento. Con análisis de abundancia diferencial y algoritmos de aprendizaje automático supervisados, identificamos biomarcadores de rendimiento en cada compartimento: 16 biomarcadores en hojas, 44 en raíces y 101 en suelo. Varios CMA forman parte de los bioindicadores del compartimento radicular y del suelo. Todas estas CMA están asociadas a parcelas de alto rendimiento, lo que sugiere un papel directo en el crecimiento y la productividad de las vides. Estos bioindicadores microbianos de rendimientos estables y elevados permitirán desarrollar programas de diagnóstico del funcionamiento de los ecosistemas vitivinícolas.

Microbiome, disease-resistant varieties, and wine quality

The development of interspecific hybrid varieties (ihvs) resistant to diseases such as powdery mildew and downy mildew allows for a decrease in the use of inputs in vineyards. In this pers-pective, ihvs represent a response to societal demand for reducing environmental impact and are increasingly used in viticulture. At the same time, wines resulting from so-called sponta-neous fermentations, based on indigenous flora, have recently gained popularity.

Towards an ecological architecture inspired by underground cellars: An example of the thermal inertia of Moldovan underground cellars and new geothermal and Canadian well approaches

The search for underground shelters is one of the oldest forms of human habitation, providing refuge in extreme environments such as deserts and polar regions.

Successful training on responsible wine consumption in Germany

Considering that „prevention requires information”, in 2007, the european education program wine in moderation (wim) started. The common message of responsible and only moderate wine consumption is implemented in each participating country, adapted to national circumstances. In germany, besides recruiting new wim members from the wine sector, the deutsche weinakademie focusses also on information and education of future wine makers and cellar men in professional schools. The seminars cover basic information about the existing legal framework (youth protecting law, drink driving laws, etc.), the self regulation code of conduct for commercial communications (advertising) of alcoholic beverages as well as the health effects of alcoholic beverages, and of wine in particular.

Lean management to improve sustainability in wine sector: an exploratory study in the Prosecco DOC appellation

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.

Novel table grape varieties as “ready-to-eat” products

Consumers are increasingly requesting ready-to-eat products, which are time-saving and convenient. Offering ready-to-eat fruits and vegetables represents a quick and easy way for any consumer to add healthy products to their diet. In this study, we evaluated the aptitude of several table grape varieties to be included in the processing and packaging lines of ready-to-eat products. The following work was based on the characterization of genetic materials and varietal innovation.
