Importanza del monitoraggio micro-meteorologico nella caratterizzazione del terroir

Abstract

[English version below]

Le variabili meteorologiche e micro-meteorologiche ricoprono un importante ruolo sulla risposta vegeto-produttiva della vite e di conseguenza sulla qualità delle produzioni. Utilizzando una rete wireless di sensori sono stati monitorati i parametri meteorologici e micro-meteorologici di 4 vigneti del territorio toscano e in differenti condizioni di gestione agronomica. La comparazione di Land Indicators (indici calcolati a partire dal dato meteo territoriale proveniente da una stazione meteo tradizionale situata al di fuori del vigneto) e Proximity Indicator (indici calcolati dal dato meteo prossimale rilevato all’interno del vigneto) fa emergere come le due scale di indagine offrano una caratterizzazione del terroir significativamente diversa, in particolare per quanto concerne il ciclo giornaliero della temperatura del grappolo. Lo studio dell’impatto delle diverse pratiche di gestione della chioma sul micro-clima, ha evidenziato differenze tra le tesi defogliate e non, soprattutto nei valori di temperature massime e radiazione misurate a livello del grappolo. Questo studio evidenzia come il monitoraggio micro-meteorologico sia uno strumento efficace per ottenere delle sotto-zonazioni dei vigneti soprattutto in territori caratterizzati da morfologia eterogenea e quindi da grande variabilità spaziale dei parametri ambientali.

The micro-meteorological and meteorological variables play an important role on the vegetative-productive response of the grapevine and consequently on quality products. Using a wireless sensor network, meteorological and micro-meteorological parameters of four Tuscany vineyards have been monitored and in different conditions of agronomic management. The comparison of Land Indicators (territorial data from a traditional weather station located outside the vineyard) and Proximity Indicators (proximal data monitored inside the vineyard) highlighted large differences especially with regard to the diurnal course of bunch temperature. The impact of different management practices on canopy microclimate pointed out significative differences between defoliated and non-thesis, especially in maximum temperature and solar radiation at bunch level. Present study emphasize the role of micro-meteorological monitoring in providing a reliable picture of vineyard sub-zones that can be useful in those areas characterized by an heterogeneous morphology and hence by a large spatial variability of environmental parameters.

Health space in vine spa in the world

This elaboration presents vine spa has precious contribution of social development health and well being in culture of wine regions. The majority of the vine-spas in the world draw raw materials from the vineyard; both for cosmetics treatments and for dishes in their restaurants. Vitis vinifera vine provides fresh grapes for dishes and massages, seeds and oil from the seeds, as well as the leaves, and its extracts, and above all the wine.

Screening table grape cultivars using cell wall ELISA and glycan microarrays for berry firmness and quality parameters

The crunchy texture of table grapes is one of the key quality parameters during production. This varies from cultivar to cultivar, stage of harvest and vineyard performance. Cell wall properties are key drivers of berry quality (e.g., pericarp firmness and intactness) at harvest and beyond. Common practise amongst producers is to continuously monitor firmness by evaluating pericarp appearance of cross-sectioned berries prior to harvest. These qualitative methods can be quite arbitrary and imprecise in their execution, but more quantitative, yet simple and high-throughput methods to evaluate these cell wall polymers are not yet readily available.

Non Saccharomyces wine yeasts: emerging trends and challenges in winemaking

In the past, the contribution of non-Saccharomyces yeasts in winemaking has always been considered negative for their limited enological attitude if compared with Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In recent decades there has been a reevaluation of the role of non-Saccharomyces wine yeasts especially when used in combination and in support with S. cerevisiae (mixed fermentation). In this regard, selected non-Saccharomyces yeasts could be profitable used to give distinctive features, to enhance flavor and aroma complexity and to reduce the ethanol content of wines. Further emerging trends in the use of these yeasts are related to their role as bioprotectants and producers of health promoters compounds.

New antibacterial peptides produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae responsible for the inhibition of malolactic fermentation

In winemaking, several antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) produced by different strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were found to be responsible for the inhibition of malolactic fermentation (MLF) carried out by some strains of Oenococcus oeni. However, only two AMPs produced by one of the yeast strains studied were totally identified and their mechanism of action was described. In an attempt to identify new AMPs, a 5-10 kDa peptidic fraction produced by an oenological strain of S. cerevisiae and previously shown to strongly inhibit MLF carried out by a strain of O. oeni was further purified.
