BACKGROUND Early leaf removal at pre‐bloom is an innovative viticultural practice for
regulating yield components and improving grape quality. The effects of this technique on vine …

As the complexity of electric systems increases, so does the required effort for the monitoring
and management of grid operations. To solve grid performance issues, smart grids require …

The occurrence of heat waves in vineyards can damage the integrity of photosynthetic
systems, impair yield and affect fruit quality. The frequency of these events is increasing due to …

The Tocai Friulano cultivar grafted onto SO4 rootstock was studied for three years in four
soil types (SU1 to SU4) in the Colli Orientali del Friuli AOC, Italy. The grapevine root system, …

Due to the global warming, more and more often the red-pink grape varieties grown in the
Mediterranean basin reveal an insufficient accumulation of anthocyanins and thus a scarce …

Dry yeast extracts (DYE) are applied to vineyards to improve aromatic and secondary
metabolic compound content and wine quality; however, systematic information on the …

Carotenoids are important secondary metabolites in wine grapes and play a key role as
potential precursors of aroma compounds (ie, C 13 -norisoprenoids), which have a high …

Gli stress multipli estivi sono un fenomeno sempre più ricorrente in tutti gli areali vitivinicoli
italiani. Consistono nell’occorrenza di elevate temperature e alti regimi radiativi, in …

Grape phenolic accumulation and ripeness are important factors for the production of quality
wines. In addition, an increased berry skin thickness was seen to be correlated with higher …

Substrate nanotopography affects cell adhesion and proliferation and is fundamental to the
rational design of bio-adhesives, to tissue engineering and to the development of assays for …
