Intelligent irrigation in grapevines: a way to obtain different wine characteristics
نویسنده
چکیده
This work presents the field implementation of an intelligent irrigation controller, applied to grapevine crops. The proposed irrigation system includes the moisture measurements and the development of an intelligent control system, in order to maintain the moisture level around a set value. Moisture reference value for different irrigation treatments, such as water stress or field capacity, is decided by the user according to the desired enological grape quality. This technology is an appropriate tool for crops managing and, in addition helps to overcome difficulties imposed by a growing water demand and to reduce extraction costs.

متن کاملChanges in the phenology and composition of wine from Franconia, Germany
While the majority of the highest quality wine-producing regions in Western and Central Europe have benefitted from an increase in quality ratings due to climate change, traditional Franconian wine is in danger of losing its unique characteristics and its traditional spatial distribution. A long-term (1949 to 2010) study was made of reference vineyard observations in Lower Franconia, Germany. T...
متن کاملComprehensive Virus Detection Using Next Generation Sequencing in Grapevine Vascular Tissues of Plants Obtained from the Wine Regions of Bohemia and Moravia (Czech Republic)
Comprehensive next generation sequencing virus detection was used to detect the whole spectrum of viruses and viroids in selected grapevines from the Czech Republic. The novel NGS approach was based on sequencing libraries of small RNA isolated from grapevine vascular tissues. Eight previously partially-characterized grapevines of diverse varieties were selected and subjected to analysis: Chard...

Endophytes proved to exert multiple effects on host plants, including growth promotion, stress resistance. However, whether endophytes have a role in metabolites shaping of grape has not been fully understood. Eight endophytic fungal strains which originally isolated from grapevines were re-inoculated to field-grown grapevines in this study, and their effects on both leaves and berries of grape...
متن کاملInfluences of pre- and post-veraison cluster thinning treatments on grape composition variables and monoterpene levels of Vitis vinifera L. cv. Sauvignon Blanc
Grape composition plays important role for wine grapes in terms of wine grape quality. Besides, monoterpenes are a chemical class of compounds present in many highly aromatic Vitis vinifera L. cultivars belonging to Muscat family and some other special cultivars. One of these special grape cultivars is Sauvignon Blanc, and in this study, cluster thinning and its treatment times were used for a ...
