Uve e vini in vulcaniti basiche anorogeniche dei lessini meridionali, impronta petrochimica e assimilazione di metalli pesanti

Abstract

[English version below]

Nel 2009 sono stati prelevati e analizzati mediante XRF (X-ray fluorescence) campioni di suolo, in vigneti sperimentali siti nelle province di Vicenza e di Ancona. Sono stati inoltre determinati in 2 campioni di mosto e 2 di vino delle varietà Verdicchio e Refosco dal peduncolo rosso, ed in 2 di uva Refosco dal peduncolo rosso, gli elementi in traccia mediante ICP-MS (Inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry). Lo studio ha consentito di definire la qualità di uva e vini, i rapporti caratteristici per ogni tipologia di suolo, e caratterizzare l’impronta geochimica in un ampio areale in cui le modeste differenze climatiche non influiscono sulle dinamiche di assimilazione. Sono state definite le relazioni fra matrice suolo e vino attraverso il confronto fra le concentrazioni dei metalli analizzati nelle varie matrici e varietà di uva.

In 2009, 18 samples of soils, coming from experimental vineyards in Vicenza and Ancona, were collected and analysed using XRF technique, to characterize major and minor element concentration. Moreover, 2 samples of must, 2 samples of wine (one of each varieties Verdicchio and Refosco dal peduncolo rosso) and 2 samples of grapes Refosco dal peduncolo rosso, were investigated using ICP-MS (Inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry) technique in order to define their trace elements concentrations. The aim of this study has been not only to characterize the quality of the grapes and the wines, but also to define the typical ratios between these two variable for each soils, and to outline geochemical fingerprints in a wide area where climatic differences have limited influence on the assimilation processes. The comparison of heavy metals concentrations between the several matrix and the varieties of grapes allow to define the relationship between soil matrix and wine.

Ozone treatment: a solution to improve sanitary and physiological quality of vine plant

The vineyard world is faced to a lot of fungal diseases. Grapevine Trunk Diseases (GTD) are some of the major. After exhibiting chronical foliar symptoms, grapevines can die by apoplexy within only few days. A range species of fungi was described to be associated with the apparition of early symptoms of GTD. It is well known that ozone dissolved into water is a powerful disinfectant with no remanence. The main goal of this study was to test the efficiency of this process on different fungal species associated with GTD in vitro and in planta conditions.

The effects of reducing herbicides in New Zealand vineyards

Herbicides are commonly sprayed in the vine row to prevent competition with vines for water and minerals and to keep weeds from growing into the bunch zone. Sprays are applied before budbreak and reapplied multiple times during the season to keep the undervine bare. There is growing concern about the negative effects of herbicides on humans and the environment, and weeds in New Zealand have developed resistance to herbicides. Therefore, it is imperative that we reduce our reliance on herbicides in viticulture and incorporate methods that do not engender resistance.
