This book was released on 2012 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to temperature under controlled environs, grape (Vitis spp) cultivars 'Frontenac', 'Couderc 3309', 'Concord', 'Cabernet Franc', 'Traminette' and 'Seyval' were evaluated. Shoot growth slowed under cold temperature regimes in all cultivars except 'Concord'. Under the non-acclimating temperature regime, raffinose concentrations were low and similar among cultivars, whereas under CA temperature regimes raffinose accumulation was generally higher and cold-tolerant cultivars accumulated higher concentrations than did cold-sensitive cultivars. Basal leaves and buds accumulated the most raffinose.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Science of Grapevines: Anatomy and Physiology is an introduction to the physical structure of the grapevine, its various organs, their functions and their interactions with the environment. Beginning with a brief overview of the botanical classification (including an introduction to the concepts of species, cultivars, clones, and rootstocks), plant morphology and anatomy, and growth cycles of grapevines, The Science of Grapevines covers the basic concepts in growth and development, water relations, photosynthesis and respiration, mineral uptake and utilization, and carbon partitioning. These concepts are put to use to understand plant-environment interactions including canopy dynamics, yield formation, and fruit composition, and concludes with an introduction to stress physiology, including water stress (drought and flooding), nutrient deficiency and excess, extreme temperatures (heat and cold), and the impact and response to of other organisms. Based on the author’s years of teaching grapevine anatomy as well as his research experience with grapevines and practical experience growing grapes, this book provides an important guide to understanding the entire plant. Chapter 7 broken into two chapters, now "Environmental Constraints and Stress Physiology and Chapter 8 "Living with Other Organisms" to better reflect specific concepts Integration of new research results including: Latest research on implementing drip irrigation to maximize sugar accumulation within grapes Effect of drought stress on grapevine’s hydraulic system and options for optimum plant maintenance in drought conditions The recently discovered plant hormone – strigolactones – and their contribution of apical dominance that has suddenly outdated dogma on apical dominance control Chapter summaries added Key literature references missed in the first edition as well as references to research completed since the 1e publication will be added

Download or read book Handbook of Environmental Physiology of Fruit Crops written by Bruce Schaffer and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-05-04 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These exciting new companion handbooks are the only ones of their kind devoted solely to the effects of environmental variables on the physiology of the world's major fruit and nut crops. Their cosmopolitan scope includes chapters on tropical and temperate zone species written by scientists from several continents. The influence of environmental factors, such as irradiance, temperature, water and salinity on plant physiology and on vegetative and reproductive growth, is comprehensively discussed for each crop. In addition to being a thorough and up-to-date set of textbooks, the organzation of the two volumes makes them an excellent reference tool. Each chapter focuses on a single crop, or a group of genetically or horticulturally related crop, and is appropriately divided into subsections that address individual environmental factors. Some chapters emphasize whole-plant physiology and plant growth and development, while other chapters feature theoretical aspects of plant physiology. Several chapters provide botanical background discussions to enhance understanding of the crop's response to its environment.
Download or read book Developing Novel Methods to Mitigate Freezing Injury in Grapevines written by Hongrui Wang and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the world total grape acreage remains stable in recent years, growers have been eager to expand the planting of the cold sensitive Vitis vinifera cultivars as the world consumption of vinifera wine reveals an increasing trend. However, the expansion of the vinifera planting is limited by environmental constrains, including heat, drought and cold. In the Eastern U.S., freezing temperatures in winter and late spring frosts are, by far, the most limiting factors constraining the further development of the grape industry. To address these issues, novel methods and products have been developed in recent years to mitigate these cold-related injuries in grapevines. Previous studies indicate that the foliar application of exogenous S-abscisic acid (exo-ABA) enhances the freezing tolerance (FT) of grapevines. However, the underlying mechanism remains unknown. We investigated exo-ABA’s impact on grapevine physiology and bud sugar composition by conducting a two-year greenhouse study using potted Cabernet franc (Vitis vinifera) grapevines. Compared with control, exo-ABA decreased stomatal conductance after hours and accelerated the transition of grapevine physiology after weeks by increasing the depth of dormancy, decreasing bud water content and increasing bud FT. Exo-ABA also induced further accumulation of raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs) by effecting RFO metabolism. This mechanism involves the enhancement of the expression of raffinose synthase and galactinol synthase genes and the increase of essential components (sucrose and myo-inositol) and precursor (galactinol) of RFO biosynthesis pathway. The second part of this thesis addressed the issue of spring frost injury by testing newly developed grapevine budburst delaying products, including Amigo oil, ABA and FrostShield. A two-year study, which involved two field experiments and one growth chamber experiment, was conducted to evaluate different products’ efficacy on delaying budburst and their impacts on grapevine vegetative and reproductive growth, yield and fruit quality. Results reveal that, FrostShield outperformed Amigo oil and ABA by providing longer and more consistent delay without affecting vegetative and reproductive growth, yield components or fruit composition. FrostShield’s delay of budburst also postponed grapevine phenology, which might generate more benefits such as superior FT in the growing season and more desirable harvest date. Overall, the findings presented in this thesis not only answer specific question of ABA’s role during grapevine cold acclimation, but also directly provide valuable information for vineyard practices to manage spring frost, which will help develop novel strategies to prevent freezing injuries in vineyards and facilitate the expansion of the grape industry in the cold regions of the U.S.
