Climatic influences on Mencía grapevine phenology and grape composition for Amandi (Ribeira Sacra, Spain)

Abstract

During the year 2009 we have studied the phenology and grape composition of Mencía cultivar in seven different situations (orientation and altitude) for Amandi subzone (D.O. Ribeira Sacra, Spain). The results showed the influence of terroir on the Mencía growth stages (budburst, floraison, veraison, and harvest). All phenological data indicate that there is a delay in budburst for V-2 of 15 days respect to V-5 and V-6. A delay for floraison also was found for V-2 and V-3 (8 days respect to the others vineyards). In the veraison the delay was for V-1 and V-2 (3 days) respect to other vineyards studied. Significant differences were found in grape composition: total acidity, pH, malic acid, color intensity and anthocyanins. The volatiles also were influenced by the terroir, showed higher concentration of free compounds for V-2 (416 and SW) than the others vineyards and the total bound composition shower the highest values for V-4.

The use of plasma activated water in barrel disinfection: impact on oak wood composition

The use of barrels is a practice that improves the quality of wines. The porous structure of wood favors the accumulation of microorganisms that can deteriorate the quality of wines so that barrel cleaning and sanitizing treatments are essential. The burning of sulphur discs has been the most common practice in winemaking because ots biocide effect. Nevertheless, its effectiveness is still insufficient and it is harmful for human health.

The vascular connections in grafted plants under examination

Aims: Decreasing longevity of vineyards due to the increase in the infection of different grapevine trunk diseases is a growing concern, and could be related to the quality of grafting. The main aim of this study was to evaluate the use of xylem hydraulic conductivity measurements as a potential indicator for the quality of vascular connections in

A comparative study on physiological responses to drought in wild Vitis species 

The crossings of three wild Vitis species are commonly used as rootstocks in wine production worldwide. Factors such as disease resistance and vigor are most important for their selection.
With climate change extending drought conditions and water limitations, the selection of rootstocks conferring increased tolerance to drought takes on greater importance. Therefore, identifying Vitis species with improved drought tolerance and incorporating them into breeding programs could contribute to more resilient rootstocks under water limiting conditions. Furthermore, those species serve as a valuable resource to increase genetic variability of rootstocks. We hypothesize that species native to drier habitats will exhibit superior physiological performance under drought stress.

Single plant oenotyping: a novel approach to better understand the impact of drought on red wine quality in Vitis x Muscadinia genotypes

Adopting disease-tolerant varieties is an efficient solution to limit environmental impacts linked to pesticide use in viticulture. In most breeding programs, these varieties are selected depending on their abilities to tolerate diseases, but little is known about their behaviour in response to abiotic constraints.
