Characterization of varieties named ‘Caiño’ cultivated from Northwest of Spain

Abstract

The ‘Caiño’ cultivar was cultivated in Galicia (Northwestern Spain) before the invasion of grape phylloxera. Genetic diversity from this cultivar have been described and considered as originating in Galicia, ‘Caiño Tinto’, ‘Caiño Bravo’, ‘Caiño Redondo’, ‘Caiño Longo’ and ‘Caiño Blanco’. ‘Caiño’ was recommended as a principal cultivar for new plantations in the ‘Ribeiro’ Designation of Origin (D.O.) due to its potential for producing quality wines. Four accessions were collected from the Gemplasm Bank of Grapevines in the EVEGA (Estación de Viticultura y Enología de Galicia), Xunta de Galicia. These accessions have been studied using ampelography, ampelometry, agronomic characters. Microsatellites were selected, as recommended, to distinguish grapevine cultivars and profiles were compared with previous results. Six microsatellite primers and morphological characteristics differentiated every accession and they may therefore be considered as different cultivars. Two cultivars from the EVEGA presented genotypes that had not been reported previously: ‘Caiño Longo-EVEGA’ and ‘Caiño da Terra’

Organic mulches improve vine vigour, yield and physiological response in a semi-arid region

Recycled organic mulch within the row in vineyard floor management has become an interesting ecological strategy to adapt the crop to climate change consequences in semi-arid regions.
This study aimed to assess the impact of three recycled organic mulches [straw (STR), grape pruning debris (GPD), and spent mushroom compost (SMC)] and two conventional soil management practices [herbicide (HERB) and under-row tillage (TILL)] on vegetative vigour (NDVI), production (kg/plant), and physiological parameters (δ13C in grapes and leaf gas exchange during four grapevine phenology stages). Additionally, temperature and water soil parameters were collected at three soil depths. Data was collected during the 2021 and 2022 grapevine growing seasons in La Rioja, Spain.
