Valutazione dell’equilibrio vegeto-produttivo con metodiche di proximal sensing

Abstract

Nel biennio 2008-2009, nell’ambito di un progetto multidisciplinare coordinato e finanziato dal Consorzio Tuscania, 4 vigneti in differenti zone della Toscana sono stati monitorati con strumenti di proximal sensing al fine di valutare la variabilità riscontrabile e ottenere delle indicazioni sulle risposte vegetative delle piante e quanti-qualitative delle produzioni. La creazione di mappe di NDVI (uno degli indici di vegetazione più comunemente utilizzati) e di spessore delle chiome (CT, derivato dalla lettura dei sensori ad ultrasuoni), ha permesso di evidenziare nette differenze tra i vigneti studiati e all’interno dei singoli appezzamenti, oltre ad una forte influenza temporale sulle caratteristiche delle chiome; tali evidenze sono state confermate da un’analisi della varianza multivariata. I dati rilevati sono stati correlati con alcuni indici comunemente utilizzati per la valutazione vegeto-produttiva delle piante ottenendo delle correlazioni significative, a conferma della validità dei rilievi effettuati e del loro possibile utilizzo come metodo di monitoraggio della situazione esistente in vigneto e di supporto nei processi decisionali

English version: In 2008, collaborating with Tuscania Consortium, Ibimet of Florence and IASMA, a research was started with the aim of understanding and monitoring existing variability in vineyards and, basing on it, evaluating agronomical practices useful for qualitative and quantitative responses optimization. With this purpose, some experimental parcels were chosen in 4 different Sangiovese and Cabernet S. vineyards placed in 3 areas of Tuscany. Parcels were made by the use of different canopy management techniques in various vigour zones. In established periods (fruit setting, veraison and before technological maturity) some instrumental records were made, using ATV mounted optical and ultrasonic sensors; at the same time, indirect measurements of leaf surface and a Point Quadrat were performed. Statistical analysis allowed to validate instrumental relives and to underline the capability of the system of surveying both spatial and temporal variability both an artificial one, made by agronomical practices.

Litchi tomato as a fumigation alternative in Washington state wine grape vineyards

The northern root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne hapla) is one of the most prevalent plant-parasitic nematodes affecting Washington State Vitis vinifera vineyards. This nematode induces small galls on roots, restricting water and nutrient uptake. In new vineyards this can impede establishment. In existing vineyards, it can exacerbate decline in chronically stressed vines. While preplant fumigation is a common strategy for M. hapla management, its efficacy is temporary and relies on broad-spectrum chemicals that undergo frequent regulatory scrutiny. The trap crop litchi tomato (Solanum sisymbriifolium) showed promise in reducing plant-parasitic nematode densities in potato. This prompted field greenhouse experiments to evaluate its potential to reduce M. hapla in V. vinifera.

Wine microbial diversity and cross-over applications: emerging results and future perspectives

AIM: Cross-over applications are an emerging technological approach in food microbiology where a microorganism from one traditional specific fermentation process is used to improve quality and safety in another agri-food production/chain (Dank et al., 2021). A complex microbial diversity is found in association with fermentation in wine, including Saccharomyces, non-Saccharomyces and malolactic bacteria,  all microorganisms versatile in terms of enological utilisation (Tempère et al., 2018). Here, we propose a systematic literature review highlighting the existing trends and possible future applications related to cross-over exploitation of wine-related microbiota. 

Étude intégrée et allégée des terroirs viticoles en Anjou: caractérisation et zonage de l’unité terroir de base, en relation avec une enquête parcellaire

The terroir concept is presented as the basis of the A.O.C system, in the french vineyards. The “Anjou terroirs” programme aims at bringing the necessary scientific basisfor a rational and reasoned exploitation of the terroir. lt must lead to finalizing a lighter, more relevant integrated method of characterisation wich could be generally applied.
