Water deficit severity during berry development alters onset of dormancy transitions in wine grape cultivar Malbec
Dormancy is a survival strategy for withstanding exposure to adverse environmental conditions.
Are the variations of the chemical properties of the soil related to the aromatic compounds of wines?
Worldwide, the wine industry is interested in the influence of terroir on wine characteristics and, in particular, on the soil processes and properties influencing the wine quality.
Permanent cover crop effects on plant water relations, monitoring of CO2 fluxes in vineyards to support soil organic matter management
Vineyard soils are subjected to a substantial depletion of the organic fraction due to intensive farming systems, the reduction of row spacing and the fast evolution of vineyard mechanization.
Characterisation of spatial variability of soils within a vineyard for management zones determination
Soils properties within a vineyard usually present spatial variability, inducing variability in plant responses and grape characteristics.
Portable towers provide insight on frost characteristics and predict benefits of wind machines
Frost events occur by radiation or advection processes. The relative tendency for the different types of frosts to occur has critical importance for implementing appropriate protection measures.
Evaluation of grapevine irrigation management in Mendoza using temporal series of optical remote sensing images
The mitigation of climate change effects over vineyards area represents an important stake for viticulture sustainability.
Assessment of a 3D canopy model using UAV-based multispectral imaging in precision viticulture
Several studies have provided many techniques to rapidly characterize canopy architecture using the canopy height and width.
Certification of viticulture relatively to “Productive Revolutions 2.0 and 4.0”: “viticulture BIOBIOSOS 4.1C and 2.1C” or “sustainable holistic MetaEthics organic and biodynamic viticultures 4.1C” and “sustainable MetaEthics organic and biodynamic viticultures 2.1C”, as connected to the GiESCO charter
After writing the “Charter of MetaEthics Sustainability 4.1C of BIOBIOSOS 4.1C” we defined the rules for its certification, such as certification “BIOBIOSOS 4.1C” will be exposed in this work; charter and certification, as with everything else
“Productive Revolution 4.0” relatively to robots and precision culture must evolve towards “Productive Revolution 4.1C”, including viticulture 4.1C taking in account criteria of sustainability with their holistic or universal and Meta-Ethical criteria 4.1C
After the analysis of the “Productive Revolution 4.0” or “Revolution 4.0”, that is, the relative revolution of only the productive economic system, in the light of the “Great Chain MetaEthics 4.1C”
Perfume of vine flowers: early research on “sensory analysis”
The experience gained by us in the 70s on perfume of vine flowers together with the methodology of the “Great Chain MetaEthics 4.1C” led us to research on the topic in which particular attention was paid, to genotype choice of the consumer, but also to the innovative phenotype.
Effect of in vitro gastrointestinal simulation on the bioaccessibility of minerals in the residue obtained from grape juice centrifugation
The residue obtained from grape juice centrifugation is an excellent source of minerals, which are important for the perfect functioning of the human metabolism.
In vitro digestion of grape residue obtained from juice centrifugation: bioactive potential and stability of anthocyanins
Currently the search for alternative sources of natural pigments has stimulated the development of research in different sectors of viticulture.
Introduction to vine and wine sciences: vine and wine massive open online course (Vine & Wine MOOC)
Digital technology has revolutionized the way we communicate. It should fundamentally transform the way we teach.
The “qualities” (including sensorial, for competition, healthy, socio-economic quality) and “sustainabilities” (including 4.1C and 2.1C) in the so-called “viti-viniculture” (including cultural, traditional, historical, emotional, industrial, for profit, robbery like viticulture…) relative to important wines of the north-east of Italy, including Prosecco and Pinot Grigio
This paper outlines the results of the activities and research carried out to determine which of the following aspects most influence sensorial and economic quality of wine grapes and wine grape production: product quality, cultivar, vineyards layout, winemaking techniques we must take into consideration in short, medium and long term so that the wine-growing activity of the north-east of Italy is increasingly “MetaEthically Sustainable 4.1C”.
UAV multispectral images for precision viticulture: potential to detect Flavescence dorée and grapevine trunk disease
Among grapevine diseases affecting European vineyards, Flavescence dorée (FD) and Grapevine Trunk Diseases (GTD) are probably the ones with the most severe economic consequences. UAV multispectral images could be a powerful tool for the automatic detection of symptomatic vines.
Grape phylloxera (Daktulosphaira vitifoliae fitch) damage in grapevines growing under two soil textures and irrigation methods
Field observations in Argentinean vineyards, have led to claim that phylloxera grow better in clay soils and under drip irrigation, than in sandy soils and flooding. The aim of this study was to assess phylloxera damagein vines under two irrigation methods orsoil textures in controlled conditions.
Dependency for pesticide use in French viticulture: variability among wine producing regions and relations with some vineyard characteristics
By the means of (i) a national data base providing information about the vineyard management practices of more than 5000 vine growers in France (for years 2006 and 2010) and (ii) data characterizing the main wine producing regions, the authors analyze the factors likely to explain the intensity of pesticide use in the French vineyard.
Study of health handling practices of winegrowers, in the department of Sarmiento, San Juan, Argentina
During the last ten years, winegrowers in the department of Sarmiento have experienced losses in their productions due to the incidence of two endemic diseases of the vine: downy mildew (Plasmoparaviticola) and powdery mildew (Erysiphenecator).
Control of fungal diseases of the grapevine by low-impact products
Environmental sustainability, linked to fungicide treatments, leads to a quest for innovative answers, which are closer to the environmental ones. In this context we included our experimental activity, developed in the harvests of 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016, which is looking for innovative defense solutions in viticulture.
