Grapevines can be modified by various trellising and pruning methods so they may be successfully mechanized. There are six conditions that must be optimized to successfully mechanize a vineyard. A properly trained vine allows efficient operations with out excessive damage to the vines or reduction of fruit yield and/ or quality. Shoot positioning can be accomplished efficiently with machines wh...

Identification of species of Meloidogyne Goeldi, 1887 is fi-equently accomplished by using perineal patterns and morphometrics, but intraspecific populations are not easily distinguished. Chromosome numbers have been determined for 10 (6) of the 36 species of Meloidogyne which are currently recognized (1, 5). Four of these species have a range of chromosome numbers. This chromosome range permit...

Physiological features were examined of a 20-year-old Vitis vinifera ‘Italia’ table grape vineyard cropped in Apulia, Italy. Healthy vines with no foliar symptoms and any indications wood or berry alterations, natural infections by Phaeoacremonium minimum (syn. P. aleophilum) Phaeomoniella chlamydospora showing brown streaking symptoms, naturally infected minimum, Fomitiporia mediterranea white...

The high yield of grafted grape seedlings and their quality depend on many factors, including the grafting rootstock components, which is also determined by proper care parent vines. Their agricultural techniques should be aimed at better growth maturation shoots. technological technique breaking off shoots mandatory vines, partial removal inflorescences not so common in agrotechnics but it has...

• A new energy harvester using vibro-impact nonlinear sink is proposed. Vibro-impact induced targeted transfer improves significantly the efficiency. The optimal harvesting efficiency resides in regimes with 1–2 impacts per cycle. VINES provides high density and robust over a certain level of noise. potential (VINES) investigated. Applying Signorini’s contact law, non-smooth dynamics first form...

Abstract Elevated temperatures during berry ripening are detrimental to grape quality. The crop forcing technique (summer pruning that ‘forces’ the vine start a new cycle) increases must acidity and malic acid concentration at harvest by delaying date of veraison. However, little information is available on sensitivity water stress forced vines. A 3-year trial was conducted test three irrigatio...

In order to counteract the various effects of climate change on physiology grapevine and quality grapes leading wine produced, many different approaches have been proposed. The aim this study was assess effect cultivation techniques quantitative qualitative characters cv Xinomavro, during season 2019-2020. experimental vineyard is located in Giannakochori, Naoussa (Greece), where vines are trai...

Taking the ground cover plants of seven forest parks in Guangzhou as research object, a total 79 quadrats were set up, and frequency plant occurrences was counted. It belongs to 58 families 90 genera, including 41 species herbs, belonging 25 39 genera; 54 woody plants, 34 47 1 vines, family genus; 3 ferns, species. The appearance showed that Park dominated by with more fewer ferns vines. Herbac...
