Methyl jasmonate versus nano methyl jasmonate: effects on anthocyanins mature evolution in monastrell grapes

Abstract

AIM: The climate change is afecting particulary to the South of Spain, with high temperatures. It is important to develop new strategies in order to mantain the quality of wines. One of this strategies is the use of elicitors which increase the defense in plants and also increase the content of secondary metabolites, such as anthocyanins . On the other hand, the use of use of nanoparticules joined to methyl jasmonate could diminish the concentrations applied in plants but obtaining similar effects in Monastrell anthocyanins profile as using only methyl jasmonate.

METHODS: The treatments were carried out in an experimental vineyard of Monastrell located in South East of Spain, foliar application of each treatament, by triplicate, in verasion and a week later. The differents treataments were i) control, ii) methyl jasmonate and iii) nano methyl jasmonate (nanoparticles of hydroxyapatite doped with methyl jasmonate). A study of mature evolution was done, the samples were taken at the previous moment of the firts time treataments and every ten days and finaly in the moment of harvest. The analysis were performance by HPLC following the Gil Muñoz et al. (1) procedure.

RESULTS: The treatment with methyl jasmonate increased the anthocyanins composition in the differents points of maturation and also in the harvest moment. Similar results were obtained in the treatment with methyl jasmonate and hydroxyapatite doped with methyl jasmonate.

CONCLUSIONS

The used of nanotechnology in the treatments with methyl jasmonate would allow to reduce the dose of this elicitor obtaining similar results, in the way to reduce costs and contribute to a sustainable agriculture.

Response of different grapevine cultivars to water stress using a hydroscape approach

Viticulture worldwide is currently affected by the effects of climate change. This set of adverse phenomena lead to a deterioration of functional vine mechanisms, affecting growth, physiology and grape ripening, which may cause severe losses with respect to yield and quality. To prevent water stress and other abiotic factors from severely affecting its physiology, the vine’s response is to reduce transpiration and photosynthesis rates. This response varies depending on the cultivar and its ability to adapt to the environment. The hydroscape method is based on the internal regulation of water status in the plant. It has been recently used to classify grapevine genotypes according to their iso/anisohydric behavior when they are subjected to water stress conditions.

An overview of wine sensory characterization: from classical descriptive analysis to the emergence of novel profiling techniques

The wine industry requires coexistence between tradition and innovation to meet consumers’ preferences. Sensory science allows the objective quantification of consumers’ understanding of a product and subjective feedback of consumer’s perception through acceptance or rejection of stimulus or even describing emotions evoked [1]. To measure sensations, emotions and liking, and their dynamics over time, time-intensity methods are crucial tools with growing interest in sensory science [2].

Optimizing the use of bentonite for better control of haze formation In white and rosé wines

In winemaking, the appearance of turbidity in white and wine is a serious visual defect, which lowers significantly its commercial value. A major cause of the formation of turbidity in wine is attributed to the presence of temperature-sensitive proteins.

Effect of biological control agents on grapevine rhizosphere microbiome and grapevine defenses

Plant diseases are a major obstacle to crop production. The main approaches to battle plant diseases, consist of synthetic chemicals to attack infecting pathogens. However, concerns are increasing about the effects of chemicals in the environment, leading to an increase in the use of biocontrol agents (BCAs), due to their assets, such as, antagonism, and competition. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that the introduction of Bacillus subtilis PTA-271 (Bs PTA-271) and Trichoderma atroviride SC1 (Ta SC1) produce distinctive modifications in the composition and network structure of the grapevine rhizosphere microbial community, as well as grapevine induced defenses.

Effect of ozone application for low-input postharvest dehydration of wine grapes

The postharvest dehydration of grapes is a traditional practice to obtain wines with unique traits (e.g., sweet, dry/reinforced).
