Les micro-zones et les technologies traditionnelles de la viniculture en Géorgie

Abstract

[English version below]

La Géorgie est un pays d’une tradition très ancienne de viticulture et de viniculture. Là, dans les micro zones spécifiques, en précisant le lieu on produit de différents types du vin d’une histoire de plusieurs siècles, distingués par leurs caractéristiques, portant des signes originaux (vins de table sec, demi-sec, demi-sucré, mousseux, Kakhétien, Imérétien). Leur production est favorisée par l’unité des tels phénomènes associés entre elles harmonieusement comme l’espèce, le terroir, le climat et les technologies.

Georgia is one of the oldest viticulture and oenology country, where in Terroir regions is produced long secular history, qualitative different, original dispirited (table dry, semi-dry, semi-sweet, sparkling, Khatetian, Imeruli) wine. Producing such kind of wines is encouraged by harmonic confluence of species, soil, climatic and technological (making in Qvevri) and totality of phenomenon.

A new path for sustainable development. First results in a Venetian “bio-métaéthique company“ (Italy)

This paper will show the results of changes in income in a Veneto winery located in the municipality of Motta di Livenza (Treviso) in the North East of Italy, determined by the application of the “Holistic Universal Sustainability Charter” Metaethic 4.1CC “or” Sustainability Charter BIO-MétaÉthique 4.1CC “of GiESCO (Carbonneau, Cargnello, 2017).

The adaptative capacity of a viticultural area (Valle Telesina, Southern Italy) to climate changes

The viticulture aiming at the production of high quality wine is very important for the landscape conservation, because it allows to combine high farmer income with soil conservation

Preliminary steps of a protocol to isolate transcription factors bound to a specific DNA locus in grapevine using CRISPR-dCas9 system

Cis-acting regulatory elements are DNA sequences that can be bound by transcription factors to regulate the expression of genes in a condition-dependent and tissue-specific way. It is nowadays possible to search for DNA motives and sequences that a given transcription factor is binding or at least can, but it is still hard to have a glance at all the transcription factors that are contemporaneously located at the same locus. Inspired by an existing technique that uses the CRISPR-Cas system in mammal cells, we are trying to develop a protocol to study such regulation in Vitis vinifera. Using the highly sequence-specific binding capacity of a catalytically inactive Cas9 protein (dCas9), our idea is to set up a system to target a desired sequence and precipitate all the crosslinked proteins and distantly interacting chromatin at this locus and analyze them.

Looking for a more efficient genotypes in water use. A key for a sustainable viticulture

Aim: Grapevine has traditionally been widely cultivated in drylands. However, in recent decades, a significant part of the viticulture all over the word and specifically in Mediterranean basin, is being irrigated. In recent years, due to climate change, among other reasons, the available natural water resources have been reduced substantially compromising the sustainability of viticulture, especially in the most arid areas

Melatonin priming retards fungal decay in postharvest table grapes 

Postharvest losses of fruits may reach in some cases 40% in developed countries. This food waste has a significant carbon footprint and makes a major contribution toward greenhouse gas emissions so sustainable postharvest strategies are being investigated.
Melatonin, a well-known mammalian neurohormone, has been investigated as a priming agent to slow down fungal decay progression in postharvest climacteric and some non-climacteric fruits. However, the molecular and metabolic mechanisms responsible for such enhancement of disease tolerance are largely unknown.
