The concept of « terroir »: what does that mean ? What is it useful for ? French young adults perception

The chemical behavior of anthocyanins is considerably affected even by slight pH variations with impor-tant implications for the winemaking as well as for the wine conservation

This study explores and analyzes the socio-environmental implications associated with the cultivation of the “brs-vitoria” table grape variety. Focusing on its adoption by farmers in the vale do submédio São Francisco region in Brazil, this study delves into the diverse impacts and changes brought about since its introduction, encompassing both the social and environmental dimensions of agricultural practices in the area. Embrapa, brazil’s federal agricultural research institution, encompasses a network of 43 thematic research centers spread across the nation.

The climate change is afecting particulary to the South of Spain, with high temperatures. It is important to develop new strategies in order to mantain the quality of wines

By dissecting the root system architecture (RSA) into its underpinning components (e.g. root emission, axial growth, radial growth, branching, root direction or tropism) and identifying the relationships between them, functional-structural 3D root models are promising tools for analyzing the diversity and complexity of root system phenotypes with Genotype × Environment interactions. The model parameters are assumed to be synthetic traits, less influenced by the environment, and consequently with less polygenic architectures than the integrative RSA traits they drive. Root models can serve as a basis for in silico development of root system ideotypes by highlighting the developmental processes and parameters that most likely influence RSA fitness.

Knowledge of vine reaction to plant spacing under high potential soil conditions is restricted. This study was done to determine effects of vine spacing
