Production and technological characteristics of some French clones of the Chardonnay variety in Yugoslavia

Abstract

[English version below]

L’observation est effectuée entre 1996 et 1998. L’expérience a commencé avec des clones numérotés: 75, 95, 96 et 227 de la variété Chardonnay. Le porte greffe est le Kober 5 BB. La forme de conduite est le cordon. La taille est longue. La densité de plantation est 3,5 x 1 mètre (2857 ceps par 1/ha). Le climat est moyen continental. Le sol est type de Cambisol. On a examiné les indicateurs suivants : la production du raisin; le poids, la forme, la longueur et largeur du grappe le poids, le forme, la couleur de la pellicule le contenu en sucre et l’acidité dans le moût, la teneur en alcool dans le vin (vol.%); la couleur; l’appréciation organoleptique du vin, etc.

Testing was held in the interval from 1996 to 1998. The trial was set up in 1992 with clones no. 75, 95, 96 and 277 of the Chardonnay variety. Rootstock Kober 5BB. Planting material as virus tested originates from France. Training form cordon. Long pruning. Planting distance 3.5 x 1 m (2,857 plants per hectare). Climate moderately continental. Soil character Cambisol. Zoning of the Chardonnay variety in vineyard districts of FR Yugoslavia. The following indicators have been tested: yield of grape, cluster mass, berry mass, shape, length and width of cluster, shape of berry, color of berry epidermis, content of sugar and acids in must, content of alcohol in wine, (vol.%) organoleptic appreciation, etc.

Modelling grape and wine quality through PLS Spline statistical method

Started in 1994, this project intends to explain quality of grapes and wines using data of soil, climate and vineyard that are currently used in field trials.

Viticultural Climatic Zoning and Digital Mapping of Rio Grande do Sul – Brazil, using Indices of the Géoviticulture MCC System

The State Rio Grande do Sul is the main producer of Brazilian fine wines, with four viticultural regions. The objective is the characterization of the viticultural climatic potential of the State (total surface of 281.749 km2). The methodology use the Géoviticulture Multicriteria Climatic Classification System (Géoviticulture MCC System), based on three climatic indices – Dryness Index (DI), Heliotermal Index (HI) and Cool Night Index (CI).

Optimized protocol for high-quality RNA extraction from grape tissues using sorbitol pre-wash

Obtaining high-quality RNA from grape tissues, including berry pulp, berry skins, stems, rachis, or roots, is challenging due to their composition, which includes polysaccharides, phenolic compounds, sugars, and organic acids that can negatively affect RNA extraction. For instance, polyphenols and other secondary metabolites can bind to RNA, making it difficult to extract a pure sample. Additionally, RNA can co-precipitate with polysaccharides, leading to lower extraction yield. Also, sugars and organic acids can interfere with the pH and ionic properties of the extraction buffer. To address these challenges, we optimized a protocol for RNA isolation from grape tissues.

Climate change – variety change?

In Franconia, the northern part of Bavaria in Germany, climate change, visible in earlier bud break, advanced flowering and earlier grape maturity, leads to a decrease of traditionally cultivated early ripening aromatic white wine varieties as Mueller-Thurgau (30 % of the wine growing area) and Bacchus (12 %). With the predicted rise of temperature in all European wine regions the conditions for white wine grape varieties will decline and the grapes themselves will lose a part of their aromatic and fruity expression. Variety change towards the cultivation of later ripening white wine varieties is a very expensive and long-term process, and must be accompanied by special marketing efforts.

Fractal analysis of the hydrological information obtained from high-spatial resolution dems: application in terroir zoning of d.o. campo de Borja (Spain)

One of the characteristics of the terroir zoning studies that is more complex to manage is the scale dependence. Thus, terroir zoning studies of the same area at different scales are comparable but not equal. Fractal analysis has demonstrated to be a suitable tool to characterize and model natural elements within a defined range of scales.
