The environmental impact of viticulture: analysis of the influence type of biofertilisers on wine quality and microbiology activity of soil

Abstract

The trial was conducted in variety/rootstock Riesling/Kober 5 BB in the vineyard district of Vrsac. The vineyard was planted in 1996 on a south-facing slope, with rectangular type pruning of 3×1 m. The training system is of symmetric cordon type and mixed type pruning is practiced. At the beginning of vegetation of grapevine, in the vine row microbiological fertilizer (A-Azotobacter chroococcum, AH-Azotobacter chroococcum+humate, ABC- Azotobacter chroococcum+ Bacillus megaterium+Bacillus circulans, and ABC+H-Azotobacter chroococcum+Bacillus megaterium+Bacillus circulans+ humate incorporated in the top 20 cm of soil. Control treatment (K-control) was not fertilizer. In investigation years 2003, 2004 and 2005, it was only fertilizer in vineyard. Microbiological fertilizers were soluble in water. Analyses of the influence type of biofertilizers on total number of bacteria and input populations of bacteria were investigated in harvest period. Results point out that total number of bacteria increase, in comparator of control, in all combination of biofertilizers. Population of Azotobakter choococcum is more numerous than other bacteria. Analyses of chemical composition of wine and wine testing had shown differences between applied beofirtilizers.

Symbiotic microorganisms application in vineyards: impacts on grapevine performance and microbiome

Microorganism-based inoculants have been suggested as a viable solution to mitigate the adverse effects of climate change on viticulture. However, the actual effectiveness of these inoculants when applied under field conditions remains a challenge, and their effects on the existing soil microbiota are still uncertain. This study investigates the impact of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi inoculation on grapevine performance and microbiome. The study was conducted in a vineyard of Callet cultivar in Binissalem, Mallorca, Spain. Two different treatments were applied: control and inoculation with commercial mycorrhizae complex of Rhizoglomus irregulare applied to plants through irrigation.

Application of grape pomace and stem extracts on Vitis vinifera L. cv. Monastrell: Increased stilbene content of grapes and wines

Pomace and grape stems are the main solid organic waste from winery industries, resulting from the pressing and/or fermentation processes it is generated in large amounts in many parts of the world

Rootstock-scion contributions to seasonal water and light use diversity under field conditions

Cultivar and rootstock selection are two well-known strategies for adapting vine production in challenging environments. Despite the vast diversity of rootstocks and cultivars, their effective contribution to grapevine sustainable development and acclimation to changing growing conditions remains an open question. The use of robust and prompt monitoring tools can allow a powerful screening of the water status of the vineyard before considering a further detailed characterization. This study leveraged new tools to monitor the stomatal conductance (gs), transpiration rate (E), and quantum efficiency of photosystem II (ᶲPSII) throughout a season, from pre-veraison to after-harvest.

Prefermentative CO2 saturation of grape must to obtaining white wines with low SO2 content

The objective this work has been study the possibility of partially or completely replacing sulphur in the winemaking of white wines through the use of the prefermentative saturation of musts with CO2.

Blend wines made of Syrah, Marselan and Tannat, had better color and more phenolic diversity than varietal wines
