Methyljasmonate versus nanomethyljasmonate: effect on monastrell nitrogen composition

Abstract

AIM: The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of preharvest application in Monastrell berries using two different types of applications: conventional treatments (methyl jasmonate) and nanocompounds (nanomethyl jasmonate) on Monastrell nitrogen composition in grapes and wines.

METHODS: The treatments was applied during two vintages (2019 and 2019) in a plot located in the southeast of Spain (Bullas, Murcia). Foliar applications were carried out at veraison and 7 days later. 200 mL per plant will be applied, using Tween 80 at 0.1% (v/v) in each solution. The applied treatments were the following: methyl jasmonate (MeJ) (10 mM) and the application of nanoparticles, nano-MeJ (0.67 mM). The corresponding analyses were made in grapes at harvest and in wines at the end of alcoholic fermentation. The ammonium ion (NH4 +) and the following free amino acids were analysed by HPLC: aspartic acid (Asp), glutamic acid (Glu), serine (Ser), asparagine (Asp), glutamine (gln), histidine (His), glycine (Gly) , threonine (Thr), β-Alanine (β-Ala), arginine (Arg), α-Alanine (α-Ala), γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), proline (Pro), tyrosine (Tyr), valine (Val ), methionine (Met), cysteine (Cys), isoleucine (Iso), leucine (Leu), tryptophan (Trp), phenylalanine (Phe), ornithine (Orn) and lysine (Lys).

RESULTS: In general terms, the application of elicitors (MeJ and nano-MeJ) significantly increased the nitrogen composition of musts and wines of the Monastrell variety. Although the results obtained were influenced by the climatic differences experienced during the two years of study, so that during the first year more noticeable differences were obtained between the treatments and the control vineyards.

CONCLUSIONS

In conclusion, although the results are preliminary, the exogenous application of nano-MeJ could be an interesting alternative to be used instead of the conventional elicitor with two aims: to reduce the use of agrochemical in plants and improve nitrogen composition in grapes and wines.

Agronomic and qualitative behaviour of cv. Tempranillo according to three vine spacing on two different hydric-edaphic situations in the Duero river valley

The knowledge of the influence of soil conditions on the effects that different plant densities provoke in the agronomic grapevine behaviour becomes very interesting since it allows to focus the vineyard management on the optimization of the natural, hydric and human resources.

Management of cover plants impacted the composition of Cabernet Sauvignon red wines in a temperate region of Brazil

– Several practices can be applied to vineyards in order to ensure good healthy for grapevines, adequate yield and fruit quality. Among them, the use of cover crops is a relevant option for soil management. It increases the organic matter, improves water infiltration, reduces risks of soil erosion and greenhouse gas emissions, in addition improving biodiversity in the vineyard.

Determination of Aroma Compounds in Grape Mash under Conditions of Tasting by On-line Near-Infrared Spectroscopy

The production of high-quality wines requires the use of high-quality grapes. Some compounds originating from grapes may negatively influence the odour and flavour of the resulting wine in their original form or as precursors for off-odours and –flavours. Therefore, a rapid evaluation of the grapes directly upon receival at the winery is advantageous. Up to now, grape aroma is mainly evaluated by tasting, however, this leads to subjective results. The use of near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy allows a rapid, objective and destruction-free analysis without previous sample preparation. Moreover, the measurement can be integrated into an existing process without additional sampling.
