The effect of ecological conditions on the germination of pollen, fecundation and yield of some grapevine cultivars in Skopje region, Republic of Macedonia

Abstract

The ecological conditions (climatic factors and soil) during the whole year, and especially before flowering and during the time of flowering, have a great influence on the functional ability of pollen, the pollination, the fecundation and the yielding potential of the cultivars of grapevine.
During the period of time 2003-2005, researches have been conducted about the percentage of germination of pollen, the percentage of self-pollination and cross-pollination and the yielding potential of certain cultivars of grapevine in R. Macedonia, more precisely in Skopje area of vineyards.
The following cultivars of grapevines were examined: Vranec, Dattier, Italia and two different varieties of Drenok (Drenok red and Drenok black). They had different resistance to the winter low temperatures and the spring late frosts, which had a certain influence on the fecundation.
The examined cultivars of grapevine are mainly characterized with good germination of pollen and they are with a good degree of fecundation in optimal climatic conditions, excepting the varieties of Drenok (Drenok red and Drenok bleck). The obtained results of the examined elements are of a great importance for further yield and quality of the grape of the examined cultivars.

Protection juridique du terroir viticole en France

The diversity of potential sources of damage to the terroir of an appellation (physical, aesthetic, ecological damage, damage to the image, to collective representation or even, in a broad concept which will not be retained here, to the geographical name identifying the terroir) is accompanied by a fragmentation of the legal sources allowing its protection.

Determining sub-appellations in Ontario’s wine regions

Vintners Quality Alliance (VQA) Ontario, (Alliance de qualité Vintners) est responsable de l’administration et de l’imposition des normes en liaison avec la qualité du vin, l’appellation d’origine, les variétés de raisin et les méthodes de production. Des vins produits selon les règlements de VQA sont actuellement étiquetés de trois distinctes mais larges régions d’appellation

Utilisation de données historiques pour caractériser le millésime en cours

Cet article propose la formalisation d’un modèle paramétrique pour représenter l’accumulation des sucres dans les baies de raisin durant la maturation. Le test de ce modèle sur des jeux de données réels a permis de valider l’approche proposée. Une seconde partie est axée sur l’adaptation de la méthode pour permettre la simulation du comportement du millésime en cours dès les premiers relevés de maturité. Ce travail possède de multiples applications dans le domaine de l’aide à la décision.

TerraClim, an online spatial decision support system for the wine industry

Climate projections for the future suggest favourable conditions for some wine producing regions, but challenging conditions for others. For instance, temperature increases are likely to shift grapevine phenology, ripening and harvest dates, and potentially affect grape quality and yield.
