Unraveling the mechanistic basis of grapevine vigor would allow for better management decisions prior to planting resulting in uniformity in yield and fruit quality year after year.

Recent researches have shown the ability of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) to collect real-time data acquired by sensors distributed throughout a vineyard or a watershed area.

The trellis and training systems are important technical resources to balance vigour, yield and quality in vineyards.

The phenolic profile, as determined by the relationship between different compounds, is characteristic of each grapevine variety and it is considered as a chemotaxonomic parameter for the classification and differentiation of red varieties of Vitis vinifera.

Plant architecture modifies microclimate – air relative humidity (RH%) and temperature (T°C)- in clusters area, which influences incidence of fungal rots.

Dans ce travail est exposé : 1- une ‘essentielle présentation des « vieux-nouveau » modèles productifs appartenant au groupe appelé “UNIC” du “Conegliano Campus”, comme le «Prosecco modifié Conegliano », le «NiofProsecco» et le «ProRab”,

En 2011 se sont conclues les recherches conduites sur plus de trente ans dans Italie et à étranger et destinées à :1- définir les modèles viticoles «soutenables» d’après la “Grande Filière” “Made in Italy”, “Made in Italy du Campus Oenologique de Conegliano”, “Made Non in Italy”,

In grapevine, monitoring canopy architecture is important for the assessment of growth, vigour and light transmission to the flowers and fruit zone.

Knowledge about grapevine leaf and canopy age is relevant when studying plant reaction to the environment.

Even though convenient for grape berry quality for wine making in grapevines, water stress is known to provoke negative physiological effects on plants.

The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of early defoliation on the temporal dynamics of the photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) in the fruit zone of Istrian Malvasia (Vitis vinifera L.) vines.

Mesoclimate modeling of a vineyard may have important implications, mainly, for management of wine-growing strategies.

In warm and dry climates, the use of porous systems should be required in order to allow a better leaf distribution inside the plant, causing more space in the clusters area and enhancing determined physiological processes so in the leaf (photosynthesis, ventilation, transpiration) as in berry (growth and maturation).

In Beaujolais, for some years severe topping was developed on goblet-pruning, in order to reduce working time and sensitiveness to grey rot.

The aim of this study is to identify the relationships between vine vigour, canopy microclimate and secondary metabolite accumulation in cv Nebbiolo berries.

In a vineyard located at Alcains (Beira Interior, Portugal), planted in 2004 with ‘Trincadeira’, ‘Touriga Nacional’, ‘Aragonez’ and ‘Alfrocheiro’ all grafted on ‘SO4’ rootstock, spaced 3×1 m, and trained as a single vertical curtain, the effect of crop load in vine production and quality was studied by non-linear fitting of crop load

The investigation was conducted from 2009 to 2012. on cv. Chardonnay in the productive vineyard.

In order to reduce the costs of pruning and increase the income, the effects of mechanical pruning (hedge pruning) and the application of different soil amendments (municipal solid waste, sewage sludge, char dust and cow manure) were evaluated.

On exposera les résultats quantitatifs-qualitatifs et ceux économiques, environnementale, sociaux, existentiels, éthiques d’une façon « MétaÉthique» selon la «Grande Filière MétaÉthique» du Conegliano Campus

The present paper shows the experimental results from a 6-years-study on a precise mechanical pruning system compared to a standard Royat pruning system.
