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.

The chemical composition of disease resistant hybrid grape cultivars and its impact on wine quality: an exploratory enquiry into sustainable wines

Disease resistant hybrid grape cultivars are now allowed in a number of EU wine PDOs, and are also accepted in a number of countries outside the EU. There is increasing interest in diseases resistant hybrid grape cultivars (RHGCs) because they allow for the production of healthy, high quality grapes with limited use of pesticides and the associated environmental and public health

Deciphering grapevine trunk early molecular responses to P. minimum and P. chlamydospora in the presence of a commercial biocontrol agent (Trichoderma atroviride, Vintec®)

Esca, one of the main grapevine trunk diseases, is a complex and poorly understood disease. Phaeoacremonium minimum and Phaeomoniella chlamydospora, two of the main pathogens associated to this disease, are thought to be responsible for the first trunk infections. Little is known concerning grapevine trunk defenses during pathogen infection.

Techniques for sunburn reduction in bunches in Vitis vinifera L. cv. Graciano

Sunburn results from a combination of excessive photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) and UV radiation and temperature that can be exacerbated by other stress factors such as water deficit. Sunburn is a physiological disorder that affects the visual and organoleptic properties of grapes. The appearance of brown and necrotic spots severely affects the commercial value of the fruit, and in extreme cases, significantly decreases yield. This damage occurs with some frequency in sensitive varieties such as Graciano.
