Stomatal behaviour of three minority grapevine varieties grown in the La Mancha region (Spain)

The mineral composition of wine spirit (WS) is of relevant interest due to its potential effect on physicochemical stability, sensory characteristics, and safety.1 Calcium (Ca) and iron (Fe) can form insoluble compounds, negatively affecting the WS clarity. Transition metals, e.g. Fe and copper (Cu), seem to play an important catalytic role on oxidation reactions involving phenolic compounds and other substrates for oxidation in WS

Le but de notre travail a été d’étudier l’influence de différents systèmes de la gestion du sol en viticulture sur des paramètres biologiques de sol comme indicateurs de la protection et de la qualité du sol. La conservation de sol est indispensable pour une viticulture durable et la protection du terroir. Nos résultats ont montré, que la matière

Nowadays biodiversity loss is considered as a prior environmental issue. Agricultural landscapes are particularly concerned, mainly through the specialization and intensification of farming activities which lead, at a larger scale, to landscape simplification. Landscape management would be a good means to halt biodiversity loss, but large-scale studies remain rare. The life+ project BioDiVine aims to understand biodiversity dynamics and promote sustainable conservation actions at this scale in viticulture.

Accurate and non-destructive monitoring of grape ripening is essential for optimising harvest decisions, particularly under water stress conditions.

Pergola veronese is the most important vine training system in Valpolicella area but Guyot in the last decades is diffusing. Rondinella is one of the three most important varieties
