Rootstocks are among the main factors that influence grape development as well fruit and wine composition. In this work, rootstock/scion interactions were studied using transcriptomic metabolic approaches on leaves of 'Gaglioppo' variety, grafted onto 13 different rootstocks growing in same vineyard. The whole leaf transcriptome five selected showed high variability gene expression. particular, significant modulation transcripts linked to primary secondary metabolism was observed....
'Nebbiolo' (Vitis vinifera) is among the most ancient and prestigious wine grape varieties characterised by a wide genetic variability exhibited high number of clones (vegetatively propagated lines selected mother plants). However, limited information available for this cultivar at molecular genomic levels. The whole-genomes three (CVT 71, CVT 185 423) were re-sequenced de novo transcriptome assembly was produced. Important remarks about peculiarities its intra-varietal useful clonal...
Abstract MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate the post-transcriptional control of several pathway intermediates, thus playing pivotal roles in plant growth, development and response to biotic abiotic stresses. In recent years, grapevine genome release, small(s)-RNAseq degradome-RNAseq together has allowed discovery characterisation many miRNA species, rendering additional miRNAs difficult uncertain. Taking advantage responsiveness stresses availability virus-free Vitis...
Grapevine rupestris stem pitting-associated virus (GRSPaV) is a widespread infecting Vitis spp. Although it has established compatible viral interaction in vinifera without the development of phenotypic alterations, can occur as distinct variants that show different symptoms diverse species. The changes induced by GRSPaV V. cv 'Bosco', an Italian white grape variety, were investigated combining agronomic, physiological, and molecular approaches, order to provide comprehensive information...
Phenolic concentrations in leaves and berries collected from both heat-treated grapevine leafroll associated virus type 3 (GLRaV-3) A (GVA) infected vines of the Nebbiolo clone 415 were analyzed throughout growing season. Anthocyanins, hydroxycinnamoyltartaric acids, flavonols, catechins by HPLC total anthocyanins spectrophotometry. The results showed that elimination induced an earlier higher accumulation berries, while a quantity flavanols was found leaf blades plants whose photosynthetic...
Grapevine leafroll is one of the most widespread virus diseases grapevine and <i>Grapevine leafroll-associated 3</i> (GLRaV-3) its major causal agents. The effect GLRaV-3 elimination was studied under vineyard conditions for two years by comparing virus-free infected lines same clone <i>Vitis vinifera</i> cv. Dolcetto, an important red wine cultivar grown in northwestern Italy. results confirmed advantages using vines terms field performance (vigor, yield, leaf photosynthesis, juice soluble...
GFLV, GLRaV-1, GLRaV-3, GVA, berry-skin thickness, anthocyanin extractability Modifications in grape quality parameters induced by mixed infection with GFLV and GFkV, GLRaV-1 GLRaV-3 GVA three Nebbiolo clones were compared against healthy plants of the same two experimental vineyards Piemonte, northwest Italy.The aim study was to evaluate effect virus on mechanical properties berry skin whole as assessed texture analysis tests, amount phenols.Differences observed grapevine vigour, yield...
Plant virus infections are often difficult to characterize as they result from a complex molecular and physiological interplay between pathogen its host. In this study, the impact of phloem-limited grapevine B (GVB) on Vitis vinifera L. wine-red cultivar Albarossa was analysed under field conditions. Trials were carried out over two growing seasons by combining agronomic, molecular, biochemical ecophysiological approaches. The data showed that GVB did not induce macroscopic symptoms...
Several research studies were focused to understand how grapevine cultivars respond environment, nevertheless the biological mechanisms tuning this phenomenon need be further deepened. Particularly, molecular processes underlying interplay between clones of same cultivar and environment poorly investigated. To address issue, we analyzed transcriptome berries from three 'Nebbiolo' grown in different vineyards, during two ripening seasons. RNA-sequencing data implemented with analyses...
Vitis vinifera ‘Nebbiolo’ is one of the most important wine grape cultivars used to produce prestigious high-quality wines known throughout world, such as Barolo and Barbaresco. a distinctive genotype characterized by medium/high vigor, long vegetative ripening cycles, limited berry skin color rich in 3′-hydroxylated anthocyanins. To investigate molecular basis these characteristics, berries collected at three different stages (berry pea size, véraison, harvest) were compared with V....
Grapevine commercial micropropagation has been constrained by the possibility that phenotype of resulting plants may be modified. In this work, we observed characteristics self-rooted grapevine (cvs Moscato and Barbera), derived from (MP) or woody cuttings (C) over several years after they had planted in vineyard. Observations concerned phenology, vegetative growth, ampelography, production, juice composition. For ampelometric description, main parameters adult leaves were measured means a...
