Stomatal restrictions to photosynthesis in grapevine cultivars grown in a semiarid environment

Consumer expectations are increasingly shifting towards “residue-free wines.” However, from an analytical standpoint, “zero” does not exist. Laboratories often use the quantification limits of analysis methods to signify ‘zero.’ Improved techniques now allow for the quantification of levels that were previously undetectable. This is why we prefer to use the term “unquantifiable residue” rather than “absence of residues.”

Yeast cell wall components are valuable biotechnological tools with applications in oenology and beyond [1], [2].

In this work, results about the composition in polyphenols and polyamines in important wine-grape cultivars from the Emilia-Romagna region are presented. Spectrophotometric and HPLC analyses suggest that especially coloured berries are particularly rich of antioxidant species (stilbenes and catechins). Potential allergenic capability of biogenic amines was also characterized.

This study presents the preliminary results obtained in 2022, of the evaluation of three new crossbreed winegrape genotypes and their parental varieties, grown under controlled irrigation (60% ETc) and rainfed conditions in a wine-growing area with scarcity of water and high temperatures (Murcia, southeast Spain). The genotypes MC16 and MC80 were obtained from crosses between the varieties ‘Monastrell’ and ‘Cabernet Sauvignon’, and MS104 from crosses between ‘Monastrell’ and ‘Syrah’ [1]. The objective of this study was to analyse the physiological response and vegetative development of the 6 genotypes under the two irrigation conditions, and to study their effect on the content of soluble sugars and chlorophyll in the leaf.
