Grapevine in a Changing Environment
Grapes (Vitis spp.) are economically the most important fruit species in the world. Over the last decades many scientific advances have led to understand more deeply key physiological, biochemical, and molecular aspects of grape berry maturation. However, our knowledge on how grapevines respond to environmental stimuli and deal with biotic and abiotic stresses is still fragmented. Thus, this area of research is wide open for new scientific and technological advancements. Particularly, in the context of climate change, viticulture will have to adapt to higher temperatures, light intensity and atmospheric CO2 concentration, while water availability is expected to decrease in many viticultural ...
Grapes Indoors and Out
Popular in Victorian days when specialist greenhouses for grapes were known as vineries, the vine is now increasing in popularity again amongst amateur gardeners. Despite the inclement British weather, it is possible to grow grapes here successfully - even out of doors. A sun loving plant, the vine can be grown in the open in the southern part of the British Isles. Elsewhere, in areas of high summer rainfall, strong winds, or where the climate is cool during the growing season, vines should be cultivated under glass - the ideal structure for grapes being a lean-to greenhouse facing south. This new edition of the popular Wisley Handbook, now with full colour throughout and in the new Wisley format, covers all aspects of viticulture for the amateur gardener.
Genetics, Genomics, and Breeding of Grapes
Grapevine is a highly valuable crop worldwide, both from a cultural as well as a commercial point of view. One of its major advantages is that it is well adapted to scarce water conditions. The main object of grapevine breeding is to develop varieties that are resistant to pathogens and at the same time well-adapted to a changing environment. Since
Grapevine Breeding Programs for the Wine Industry
Grapevine Breeding Programs for the Wine Industry: Traditional and Molecular Techniques summarizes recent trends in grapevine breeding, both in terms of research and practical programs. The first group of chapters covers the challenges faced by breeders and existing and emerging techniques used to combat them. Two further groups of chapters focus on grapevine breeding programs in different wine-producing countries around the world. With authoritative contributions from experts across the world's winemaking regions, this book will be an essential reference for all those involved in viticulture and oeneology wanting to explore new methods, understand different approaches and refine existing practices. - Covers challenges faced by breeders - Highlights grapevine breeding programs in different wine-producing countries - Contributions from experts across the world's winemaking regions
The Home Orchard
Developed especially for use by backyard orchardists, rare fruit growers, and small-scale growers, The Home Orchard offers a comprehensive look at standard growing methods, as well as some innovative practices that enthusiasts have developed in recent years, some of which are uniquely suited to the small-scale grower. You will learn how trees grow, which species grow best in the different regions and soils, varieties from which to select, preparing the soil, planting, watering and fertilizing, pruning and grafting, thinning the fruit, diagnosing problems, controlling pests, and harvesting. You'll also find special attention given to organic and non-toxic pest management and fertilization met...

Biology of Microorganisms on Grapes, in Must and in Wine
The second edition of the book begins with the description of the diversity of wine-related microorganisms, followed by an outline of their primary and energy metabolism. Subsequently, important aspects of the secondary metabolism are dealt with, since these activities have an impact on wine quality and off-flavour formation. Then chapters about stimulating and inhibitory growth factors follow. This knowledge is helpful for the growth management of different microbial species. The next chapters focus on the application of the consolidated findings of molecular biology and regulation the functioning of regulatory cellular networks, leading to a better understanding of the phenotypic behaviour...
