Différenciation de parcelles de Chenin du Val de Loire, a l’aide de l’etude des flores fongiques des raisins, en utilisant l’outil DGGE

Abstract

Depuis le millésime 2002, une étude est menée sur la diversité de la flore fongique de parcelles du cépage chenin, situées essentiellement sur les appellations de Vouvray et Montlouis ; deux appellations séparées par le fleuve nommé la Loire. Les parcelles se situent dans des conditions pédoclimatiques différentes, qui se retrouvent au travers des suivis de maturité et l’état sanitaire.

L’objectif est d’utiliser la flore fongique comme facteur de différenciation entre les parcelles, et d’évolution au cours de la maturité. C’est dans ce cadre qu’un outil d’écologie microbienne a été utilisé : Denaturating Gradient Gel Electrophoresis (DGGE). Après une étude spécifique sur les moisissures des raisins, qui ont permis d’établir le référentiel, les échantillons complexes constitués de l’eau de lavage des baies de raisins, ont été analysés. Ainsi, nous avons pu analyser et différencier plusieurs parcelles de cépage chenin, situées dans des conditions pédoclimatiques différentes.

English version: Since the vintage wine 2002, a study is led on the variety of the fungal flora of parcels of the Chenin vine, situated essentially on the controlled origin label of Vouvray and Montlouis; two controlled origin label separated by the river named the Loire. The parcels are situated in conditions different of soils and of climate, which meet through the follow-ups of maturity and the sanitary state.

The objective is to use the fungal flora as factor of differentiation between the parcels, and evolution during the maturity. It is in this frame that a tool of microbial ecology was used: Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis (DGGE). PCR-DGGE is a molecular method which allows the direct analysis of DNA in complex samples without any culture step. This method is based on the separation in a denaturing gradient of double-strand DNA fragments which have the same length but different nucleotide sequences. After a specific study on fungus of grapes, which allowed establishing the reference table, the complex samples constituted by some water of wash of the berries of grapes, were analyzed. This tool will allow us to draw a parallel between the dynamic of fungal populations present in different conditions of soil and of climate. PCR-DGGE showed its potentialities for a fast characterization of fungi in complex mixes.

The modification of cultural practices in grapevine cv. Syrah, does it modify the characteristics of the musts?

The work shows the results of a year of experimentation (2020) in a Syrah variety vineyard in La Roda (Castilla-La Mancha, Spain). The trial approach was on a randomized block design with two factors: Irrigation (I) and Pruning (P). Irrigation schedules were adjusted to apply amounts close to 1,500 m3/ha. With this provision, 2 different irrigation treatments were proposed: I1) Start of irrigation from pea-sized grape to post-harvest (providing at least 20 % of the total amount of irrigation water to be provided post-harvest); I2) Start of irrigation from pea-sized grape to harvest (usual irrigation practice in the study area). Pruning was proposed with two treatments, one at the end of January (P1), which is pruning on a conventional date; and P2) pruning carried out at the beginning of budding. In total, 4 repetitions were designed with 4 elementary plots, each one of them representing one of the proposed treatments (I1P1; I1P2; I2P1; I2P2). In total, 16 plots were worked on and each elementary plot consisted of 30 strains, distributed in 3 lines. The productive response was evaluated with the yield results of the harvest harvested at 23 ºBrix. The qualitative response was measured in the musts through the indices of technological (acidity, pH and potassium) and phenolic maturity and aromatic compounds in free and glycosylated fractions. The treatments tested had, in general, an effect on the different variables analyzed.

Assessment of O2 consumption, a new tool to select bioprotection yeast strains

Reduction of sulfur dioxide during winemaking is a request from the wine industry. To replace sulfur dioxide, various alternatives exist, including bioprotection by yeast inoculation. This practice consists in adding non-Saccharomyces yeasts directly on the grapes or must.

Nucleophilic fraction to estimate the antioxidant activity of inactivated yeast derivates

Oxidation in wine is mostly related to the Michael addition of nucleophiles on two quinones formed from the oxidation of ortho-diphenols. In wine this mechanism is responsible for the increase of the yellow hue and aroma loss. Glutathione exerts its antioxidant activity throughout its competitive addition onto quinones, but many other compounds can have the same behavior: sulfanyl
compounds, amino acids, etc. Addition of yeast derivates during the winemaking process can increase the level of those nucleophilic compounds and then confer to the wine a higher resistance

Climatic groups in Ibero-America viticulture compared to worldwide wine producer regions

The wine production is an important activity in many Ibero-American countries. The wine producer regions of these countries configure a large use of different climate types and viticultural climates.

Characterization of a Sémillon clonal population: exploring genetic diversity, metabolomic profiles, and phenotypic variations

Sémillon is a cultivated grape variety known for contributing to dry and sweet white wine production. However, only seven approved clones have been officially recognized in France[1]. In this study, we aimed to characterize the genetic diversity and metabolomic profiles of a Sémillon clonal population, shedding light on the potential variations within this important grape variety.
