The influence of climate on the grapevine phenology and content of sugar and total acids in the must

Abstract

For the period of 10 years in the condition of Skopje vineyard area, at two regional (Vranec and Smederevka) and two international (Cabernet sauvignon and Chardonnay) grapevine cultivars, the researches are done.
The influences of temperatures sum on the duration of following phenological stages (number of days) are analyzed: from budburst to full maturity; from budburst to flowering and from veraison to full maturity. The temperature sum has a high impact on the duration of each phenological stage, especially from budburst to full maturity and from budburst to flowering. The climate has the influence on the content of sugar and total acids in the must. These parameters show grater variation at the cultivars Cabernet sauvignon and Chardonnay than cvs. Smedervka and Vranec.

Study of the effect of native vineyard bacteria on the expression of Plasmopara viticolaeffectors

Downy mildew, caused by the oomycete Plasmopara viticola (Berk. & M.A. Curtis) Berl. & De Toni, is one of the most destructive grapevine diseases mostly affecting Vitis vinifera L. and impacting on viticulture. The pathogen invasion can induce in grapevine multiple defense reactions, first PAMP-Triggered Immunity and secondly Effector-Triggered Immunity. Plasmopara viticola can overcome these defense mechanisms through the secretion of effectors, such as RxLR, into the plant cells, making it easier for the oomycete to infect grapevines. Currently, the use of chemical pesticides remains the most effective way to control the pathogen with severe negative side effects on the environment and animal health.

Phenolic composition of Cabernet Sauvignon wines from Argentina, Portugal and Spain

Grape and wine phenolic compounds have been shown to be highly related to both wine quality (color, flavor, and taste) and health-promoting properties (antioxidant and cardioprotective, among others). The aim of this work was to evaluate and compare the phenolic contents of Cabernet Sauvignon wines from different geographical areas and climatic conditions, namely from Argentina, Portugal and Spain vintage 2022. In addition, the phenolic profiles of the Portuguese wines from three vintages (2020, 2021, 2022) was compared.

Polysaccharide families of lyophilized extracts obtained from unfermented varietal grape pomaces

The recovery of bioactive compounds from grape and wine by-products is currently an important objective for revaluation and sustainability. Grape pomace is one of the main by-products and is a rich source of some bioactive compounds. The aim of this study was to evaluate the polysaccharide (PS) composition of extracts obtained from pomaces of different white and red grape varieties of Castilla y León. Grape pomaces were obtained after the pressing in the winemaking process.

Estimating grapevine crop coefficients at high-resolution using open-source satellite data

Climate change results in increasing water stress due to co-effects of rising evapotranspiration (ET) and decreased precipitation over the past 65 years (Spinoni et al. 2019).

Aspetti legislativi di settore: e politiche comunitarie

Sulla base del tema assegnatomi è stata forte la tentazione di addentrarmi nel labirinto della regolamentazione comunitaria. Per buona pace degli intervenuti ho ritenuto, pero, poco utile una elencazione di numeri e riferimenti normativi che saranno brevemente riassunti in una tabella (TAB 1),
