Comportement hydrique des sols viticoles et leur influence sur le terroir

Abstract

L’étude des relations Terroir – Vigne – Raisin est complexe. La recherche et le développement des facteurs qualitatifs qui influencent le caractère des vins sont multiples. Divers travaux mettent en évidence la relation entre l’alimentation en eau de la plante, son développement végétatif et les caractéristiques de ses raisins. Après étude agropédologique préliminaire, nous avons implanté des tubes neutroniques dans les vignobles du Mandement (canton de Genève) et de Chamoson (canton du Valais), à des profondeurs se situant entre 4 et 9 mètres. Nous avions pour but de considérer le régime hydrique de quelques sols caractéristiques. En parallèle, nous avons enregistré les paramètres mésoclimatiques et microclimatiques des régions concernées, observé le développement du végétal et suivi l’évolution de la maturation des baies.
Dans ce contexte, nous nous sommes intéressés plus particulièrement à l’influence du régime hydrique, sans négliger la problématique de l’irrigation. L’on ne saurait aborder ce sujet sans tenir compte de l’enracinement de la vigne: les racines explorent non seulement les premiers décimètres du sol, mais également, lorsque les conditions les y obligent, le sous-sol, allant parfois même jusqu’à pénétrer la roche-mère. Ainsi assurent-elles l’alimentation en eau de la vigne.

Climate variability and its effects in the Penedès vineyard region (NE Spain)

This study present a detailed analysis of the rainfall and temperature changes in the Penedès region in the period 1995/ 96 – 2008/09, in comparison with the trends observed during the last 50 years, and its implications on phenology and yield.

Under-vine cover crops as a management tool for irrigated Mediterranean vineyards: agronomic implications and changes in soil physical and biological properties 

Cover crops are increasingly considered in Mediterranean climate vineyards due to a combination of agronomic and regulatory considerations. However, the soil under the vines themselves is typically kept free of vegetation by mechanical plowing or herbicide spraying. Taking into account that these practices may convey a number of non-favourable economic and environmental implications, and the fact that drip irrigation can ease the use of cover crops under the vines, the aim of this work was to evaluate the agronomic implications and the changes in soil physical and biological properties caused by an under-vine cover crop in a Mediterranean area.

Data mining approaches for time series data analysis in viticulture. Potential of the bliss (Bayesian functional linear regression with sparse step functions) method to identify temperature effects on yield potential

Context and purpose of the study – Vine development, and hence management, depends on dynamic factors (climate, soil moisture, cultural practices etc.) whose impact can vary depending upon their temporal modalities.

A phylogenomic study reveals the major dissemination routes of ‘Tempranillo Tinto’ in the Iberian Peninsula

‘Tempranillo Tinto’ is a black-berried Iberian cultivar that originated from a hybridization between cvs. ‘Benedicto’ and ‘Albillo Mayor’ [1]. Today, it is the third most widely grown wine grape cultivar worldwide with more than 200,000 hectares of vineyards mostly distributed along the Iberian Peninsula, where it is also known as ‘Cencibel’, ‘Tinta de Toro’, ‘Tinta Roriz’, and ‘Aragonez’, among other synonyms. Here, we quantified the intra-varietal genomic diversity in this cultivar through the study of 35 clones or ancient vines from seven different Iberian wine-making regions. A comparative analysis after Illumina whole-genome sequencing revealed the presence of 1,120 clonal single nucleotide variants (SNVs).

The current state and prospects for the development of viticulture and winemaking in Greece

Viticulture in Greece is the oldest, but in recent years there has been a reduction of areas intended for the production of wine products. The article contains data on viticulture in Greece. Over time, the land of Greek vineyards is fluctuating. There is a trend towards a decrease in areas in connection with the quota of products from the EU.
