Targeting genes involved in the organic acid metabolism of grape berry
Global warming accelerates the loss of acidity in grape berries (Vitis vinifera), a critical parameter for wine quality and sensory freshness.
GBG 2026 – Session 2: Genomics and functional genetics
Transcriptome profiling of genotypes showing contrasting bunch compactness subtraits reveals differential expression of genes involved in cell wall organization and terpene metabolism
Bunch compactness (BC) is a complex trait which can influence several aspects of fruit quality given its role in disease susceptibility, ripening heterogeneity and consumer acceptance (in the case of fresh grapes).
Unravelling the genetic determinants of anthocyanin and polyphenol content in grapevines integrating genome wide association studies and metabolomic profiling
The quality and productivity of grapevines are highly dependent on environmental factors. Climate change is altering grapevine physiology and wine production conditions, thus, winegrowers need to adapt to maintain optimal production and wine quality.
ViLHair – genetic determinants of wild Vitis accessions for trichome density as physical barrier against Plasmopara viticola
Grapevine downy mildew caused by Plasmopara viticola is a highly adapted, obligate biotrophic pathogen. It is able to infect all green tissues of a grapevine under suitable conditions, including flowers and unripe grape clusters.
