Contribution to the research of microbial and RedOx bio-indicators for the early characterisation of wood diseases in grapevines
2022
Grapevine trunk diseases, linked to pathogenic fungi whose mechanism of action is still poorly characterised, are responsible for grapevine decline in vineyards throughout the world, causing significant losses in productivity and yield in the wine sector. Given the current lack of effective solutions to stop the establishment of the disease and the development of symptoms, which are irreversible but often late in relation to the pathogenic infection, early diagnosis of these diseases is essential. Considering the grapevine holobiont, i.e. the grapevine and the microbiota interacting with, we hypothesise that early bio-indicators of diseases would make it possible to identify a disturbance i…
Résistance aux inhibiteurs de l’ALS chez le séneçon commun (Senecio vulgaris) : la situation en vigne et en grandes cultures
2016
Resistance to ALS-inhibiting herbicides in common groundsel (Senecio vulgaris) : situation in franch vineyards and major field crops. Common groundsel (Senecio vulgaris) is a ubiquitous weed that is highly mobile and which seeds can germinate almost all year long. It also is the only weed species today in France that is officially acknowledged to have evolved a resistance to one same herbicide mode of action both in vineyards and major field crops. The purpose of this paper is to provide a picture of a few major aspects of this resistance: underlying mechanisms, detection, seed viability, spread and geographical extent of the resistance.
Grapevine vocs emissions triggered by elicitation –assessment of two french vineyards
2022
International audience; Grapevine foliar volatile organic compounds (VOCs) releases are induced by elicitor applications.Their emissions have been followed along the growing season on two geographically separatedBurgundy and Bordeaux (Chardonnay and Cabernet franc cultivars, respectively) French vineyards. Inyear 2019, fortunately lacking of endogenous disease, VOCs were collected under non-destructivemode, in four hours with SBSE sensors entrapped into a confinement Teflon bag. Then the monitoringof VOCs enables to distinguish between weak (COS-OGA (Bastid©) and CuSO4) and strong elicitors(MeJA).Although monoterpene Ocimenes are constitutively present among the scent of the twovineyards, t…
Dual mode of action of grape cane extracts against Botrytis cinerea
2019
International audience; Crude extracts of Vitis vinifera canes represent a natural source of stilbene compounds with well characterized antifungals properties. In our trials, exogenous application of a stilbene extract (SE) obtained from grape canes on grapevine leaves reduces the necrotic lesions caused by Botrytis cinerea. The SE showed to possess a direct antifungal activity by inhibiting the mycelium growth. The activation of some grapevine defense mechanism was also investigated. H2O2 production and activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) phosphorylation cascades as well as accumulation of stilbenoid phytoalexins were explored on grapevine cell suspension. Moreover, the t…
The "very loyal pinot": historical trajectory of a mythic grape variety of Burgundy
2019
Grape varieties began to appear in historical sources at the end of Middle Ages. In Burgundy, early mentions of pinot correspond to an evolution in the way wines were named. From the 14th century onwards, pinot wines have persistently demonstrated to express elements of superior quality. This variety is often offered at expensive prices due to the nature of its rarity, and as a result is commonly reserved explicity for the élites. However, it is suggested that the roles of The Dukes of Burgundy, concerning the promotion of grape varieties, is to be moderated. Therefore, if Philippe le Hardi’s proclamation condemns « the very bad and very disloyal plant called gaamez » then, it is evident th…
Improving the Aromatic Profiles of Catarratto Wines: Impact of Metschnikowia pulcherrima and Glutathione-Rich Inactivated Yeasts
2023
Catarratto is one of the most widely cultivated grape varieties in Sicily. It is an indigenous non-aromatic white grape variety. Despite its widespread use in winemaking, knowledge of the aroma and chemical and microbiological properties of Catarratto wines is quite limited. The influence of Metschnikowia pulcherrima combined with Saccharomyces cerevisiae on the aromatic expression of Catarratto wines was investigated with and without the addition of glutathione-rich inactivated yeast. The substance is a natural specific inactivated yeast with a guaranteed glutathione level used to limit oxidative processes. The aromatic profiles of the final wines were determined through analysis of the vo…
Respirometric Index and Biogas Potential of Different Foods and Agricultural Discarded Biomass
2016
The biological stability of biomass is an important parameter for treatment plant design, process control or compost use. Measuring the biological reactivity of waste with the help of indicators such as respirometric indexes (RI) becomes an important tool to prevent the significant environmental impact of biodegradable wastes in accordance with European legislation. The aim of this paper is to show the importance of the RI technique as a tool to establish further uses of biomass such as fertilizer or biogas. The respirometric process length for different types of biomass (grape marc, apple pomace and olive pomace) was quantified. Higher moisture content seemed to favor the biological activi…
Green and Quick Extraction of Stable Biophenol-Rich Red Extracts from Grape Processing Waste
2021
The extraction of grape processing waste (wine pomace) via microwave-hydrodiffusion and gravity (MHG) from three different cultivars grown in Sicily (Syrah, Perricone and Nero d’Avola) rapidly affords aqueous extracts highly concentrated in valued biophenols including flavonoids, anthocyanins and phenolic acids. The method does not employ organic solvent, acid or base and does not require grinding or freeze drying of the wine pomace nor separation of the grape skins from seeds and stem. All the extracts have a pronounced stability as shown by their red-violet color fully retained after storage for more than a year (15 months) in freezer under air. Concentrations of phenolics up to…
EVOLUTION OF ANTHOCYANIN PROFILES FROM GRAPE TO WINE
2010
Aims: This study aimed at acquiring knowledge on the evolution of anthocyanins from grape to wine and the possibility of deducing the varietal origin of a wine from its anthocyanin profile. Methods and results: The anthocyanin “fingerprints”, or profiles, of a series of autochthonous Sicilian accessions and in the respective young wines were determined by HPLC-DAD in 2008. Data were evaluated by taking into account the development of percentages of side-ring disubstituted and trisubstituted anthocyanins, the ratio between acetylated and p-coumaroylated derivatives, and PCA results. From grape until the end of alcoholic fermentation, percentages of 3-glucosides of cyanidin, peonidin, delphin…
