Bacterial community in different wine appellations – biotic and abiotic interaction in grape berry and its impact on Botrytis cinerea development

Abstract

An in-depth knowledge on the conditions that trigger Botrytis disease and the microbial community associated with the susceptibility/resistance to it could led to the anticipation and response to the Botrytis emergence and severity. Therefore, the present study pretends to establish links between biotic and abiotic factors and the presence/abundance of B. cinerea. Several grape varieties from 4 different wine appellations in France and Spain have been studied at different maturity stages to analyse: 1) B. cinerea abundance (established by qPCR), 2) grape composition parameters (comprising water activity measuring, exudates composition, phenologic stage, gluconic acid, calcium, etc), and 3) grape berries microbial community diversity and composition (using 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing).Preliminary analysis of the results obtained through 16S rRNA Next Generation Sequencing revealed differences in microbial richness and bacterial composition between the vineyards. Both alpha and beta diversities correlated with fruit maturity, where grapes at harvest stage showed significantly higher richness and a dissimilar bacterial composition. In addition, bacterial community structure differed between wine appellations. The study will increase significantly our understanding of the ecology of microbial associated to different grape varieties and viticulture areas. Additionally, it will generate knowledge about the factors.

Visualization of wine origin, quality level and terroir by the landscape

The communication of the aims of a viticulture under the premise of terroir is presently discussed in a lot of wine-growing regions around the world. To encourage this discussion the differences in knowledge, understanding, and preference concerning wine and landscape should be regarded more closely: the wine should be perceived as a representative of its region and one of the most characteristic features of a region is the landscape.

Analysis of primary, secondary and tertiary aromas in Vitis vinifera L. Syrah wines with an extemporaneous production cycle in two regions of São Paulo – Brazil, using GC-MS

The aromatic perception is one of the main factors that influence the
consumer when determining the wine’s quality and acceptance. Numerous factors (soil, climate,
winemaking style, cultivar) can influence the volatile compounds. Some of these compounds are released directly from the grape berries while others are formed during the fermentation and aging processes. However, little is known about the quality and aromatic formation of Syrah variety in the winter cycle cultivated in São Paulo.

Assessing the benefits of irrigation access: the case of Southern France vineyards

Agriculture worldwide is threatened by climate change. In particular, declining water resource availability combined with increasing water demand is a key challenge in many rainfed areas, where irrigation appears to be a straightforward adaptation option. In this context, assessing the impacts of irrigation adoption on farm yields and incomes is a necessary step to reflect on the impact of both ex-post and ex-ante policies.
