The evolution of italian vine nursery production over the past 30 years

Abstract

Italy has a long history of viticulture and has become one of the world’s leading producers of vine propagation material. The Italian vine nursery industry is today highly qualified and has become highly competitive on a global scale. The quality of the material is guaranteed by compliance with european union regulations, which have been in force since the second half of the 20th century and have subsequently been supplemented and updated.  This study presents and analyses data on propagation materials produced by the italian nursery sector over a period of more than 30 years (1990-2023). The data demonstrate a significant increase in the volume of material produced and reveal some trends in the most widely propagated varieties. Total plant production increased by more than threefold from 1990 to 2023, from approximately 40 million plants to over 141 million. Furthermore, it is possible to identify specific production trends for certain varieties, such as glera (formerly prosecco), which exceeded 18 million plants produced in 2017.

L’évolution de la production de pépinières viticoles italienne au cours des 30 dernières années

L’Italie a une longue histoire de viticulture et est devenue l’un des principaux producteurs mondiaux de matériel de multiplication de la vigne. L’industrie italienne des pépinières viticoles est aujourd’hui hautement qualifiée et est devenue très compétitive à l’échelle mondiale. La qualité des matériels est garantie par le respect de la réglementation de l’union européenne, en vigueur depuis la seconde moitié du 20e siècle et qui a été complétée et mise à jour par la suite. Cette étude présente et analyse les données relatives aux matériels de multiplication produits par le secteur italien des pépinières sur une période de plus de 30 ans (1990-2023). Les données montrent une augmentation significative du volume de matériel produit et révèlent certaines tendances concernant les variétés les plus répandues. La production totale de plantes a plus que triplé entre 1990 et 2023, passant d’environ 40 millions de plantes à plus de 141 millions. En outre, il est possible d’identifier des tendances de production spécifiques pour certaines variétés, telles que la glera (anciennement prosecco), qui a dépassé les 18 millions de plantes produites en 2017.

L’evoluzione della produzione vivaistica viticola italiana negli ultimi 30 anni

L’Italia ha una lunga tradizione vitivinicola ed è diventata uno dei principali produttori mondiali di materiale di propagazione della vite. La filiera vivaistica viticola italiana è oggi altamente qualificata ed è diventata altamente competitiva su scala globale. La qualità del materiale è garantita dal rispetto delle normative dell’unione europea, in vigore dalla seconda metà del xx secolo che sono state successivamente integrate e aggiornate.  Questo studio riporta ed esamina i dati relativi ai materiali di propagazione prodotti dal settore vivaistico italiano in oltre 30 anni (1990-2023). I dati dimostrano un notevole aumento del volume di materiale prodotto e alcune tendenze nelle varietà maggiormente propagate. La produzione totale di piante è più che triplicata dal 1990 al 2023, passando da circa 40 milioni di piante a oltre 141 milioni. Sono osservabili andamenti produttivi specifiche per alcuni vitigni, come glera, che nel 2017 ha superato i 18 milioni di piante prodotte.

Evaluation of Acıkara (Vitis vinifera L.) native grape variety of anatolia for red wine production potential

The acıkara grape variety, a nearly forgotten native black variety in Anatolia/Turkey, has recently gained interest in its potential for producing high-quality wine from producers and consumers. The potential of producing high-quality red wine from the Acıkara grape variety (vitis vinifera), which is cultivated on the elmalı/antalya in the highland (1100 m altitude) of western mediterranean region, was investigated, and the suitability of the wine’s characteristics associated with high-quality red wine was determined.

Moderate wine consumption as part of a Mediterranean diet and lifestyle under debate

Moderate wine consumption – with the meals – represents one of the beneficial components of the traditional mediterranean diet (med diet) and a positive item in the med diet score [1,2, 3]. The med diet is considered one of the best diets in the world and the world health organisation (who) identified this eating pattern as an effective strategy to prevent non-communicable diseases (ncd), since it is associated with lower disease occurrence and all-cause mortality [4] . Numerous well-conducted epidemiological studies have also reported that light-to-moderate intake of wine/alcoholic beverages is not only related to a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease, but also to all-cause mortality.

Pharmacological basis of the J-shaped curve in biological effects of wine

The classical pharmacological model assumes that the effect of a drug is proportional to the fraction of receptors occupied by the drug. In the simplest circumstances, the relationship between dose of a drug and response, when plotted on a logarithmic scale for drug concentration, is described by a sigmoidal curve. It presumes the existence of a threshold dose, below which no biological effect appears, and a maximal response in the form of a plateau, when a further increase in the dose of drug has no effect.
