Three Nebbiolo clone anthocyanin profile as affected by environmental conditions

Abstract

Vitis vinifera ‘Nebbiolo’ cultivar is a 3’-subsituted anthocyanin prevalent wine variety. It is grown in North-West Italy for the production of high quality ageing wines. In the present work berry skin anthocyanin amounts and profiles of the clones CVT 308, CVT 423 and CVT 142 were studied in 2004 and in 2005 in four environmentally different locations of North-West Italy: Donnas (steep mountain area), Monforte (hilly area, with a pH of 8.1), Vezza (hilly area, with a pH of 8.2) and Lessona (plain area, with a pH of 4.8). The interaction cultivation area vs climatic condition of the year was studied in relation to the clone anthocyanin contents and profiles. Differences in the anthocyanin amounts and profile were kept among sites and in both years and they allowed the discrimination among sites. CVT 308 and CVT 423 showed some analogies in three sites only in 2005, while the CVT 142 anthocyanin composition was similar to the one of clone CVT 423 in Donnas and of clone CVT 308 both in Donnas and in Lessona, but only in 2005. Grapes from Vezza accumulated more sugars and less anthocyanins showing higher percentages of malvidin-3-O-glucoside and of total acylated derivatives respect to the other locations.

Canopy photosynthetic activity and water relations of Syrah/R99 as affected by row orientation on a particular terroir

L’activité photosynthétique et les relations hydriques de plantes de Syrah sur R99 un mois après la véraison ont été étudiées dans un vignoble de la région de Stellenbosch. Le vignoble, planté à 2,75 entre rangs et 1,5 m sur le rang, sur un sol de type Glenrosa, était en pente et exposé a l’ouest: pour les rangs on avait adopté une orientation nord

New disease-resistant grapevine varieties response to drought under a semi-arid climate

In many regions, climate change leads to an increase in air temperature combined with a reduction of rainfall, intensifying climatic demand and water deficits (WD) (Cardell et al. 2019), which in turn may negatively impact grapevine development, yield and grape composition (Santos et al. 2020). In addition, climate change may also increase disease pressure, leading to further yield and quality losses, besides increasing costs due to increased vineyard spraying (Santos et al. 2020) and reducing viticulture acceptability by consumers (Guichard et al. 2017). Adopting new resistant varieties appears as a promising long-term solution to better manage vine protection, but unfortunately little is known regarding their behavior in front of WD.
