Integrating Functional Genomics With Salinity and Water Deficit Stress Responses in Wine Grape - Vitis Vinifera
Wine grape (Vitis vinifera) is the world’s most important fruit crop both in terms of crop production and economic value. For most crops, water deficit stress has negative implications for production and quality....

Water and salinity stress in grapevines: early and late changes in transcript and metabolite profiles
Grapes are grown in semiarid environments, where drought and salinity are common problems. Microarray transcript profiling, quantitative reverse transcription-PCR, and metabolite profiling were used to define ...

Open AccessTissue-specific mRNA expression profiling in grape berry tissues
Berries of grape (Vitis vinifera) contain three major tissue types (skin, pulp and seed) all of which contribute to the aroma, color, and flavor characters of wine. The pericarp, which is composed of the exocarp ...

Transcript abundance profiles reveal larger and more complex responses of grapevine to chilling compared to osmotic and salinity stress
Cabernet Sauvignon grapevines were exposed to sudden chilling (5°C), water deficit (PEG), and an iso-osmotic salinity (120 mM NaCl and 12 mM CaCl2) for 1, 4, 8, and 24 h. Stomatal conductance and stem water poten...

Open AccessTranscriptomic and metabolite analyses of Cabernet Sauvignon grape berry development
Grape berry development is a dynamic process that involves a complex series of molecular genetic and biochemical changes divided into three major phases. During initial berry growth (Phase I), berry size incre...

Open AccessWater deficit alters differentially metabolic pathways affecting important flavor and quality traits in grape berries of Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay
Water deficit has significant effects on grape berry composition resulting in improved wine quality by the enhancement of color, flavors, or aromas. While some pathways or enzymes affected by water deficit hav...

Article
Open AccessFive omic technologies are concordant in differentiating the biochemical characteristics of the berries of five grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) cultivars
Grape cultivars and wines are distinguishable by their color, flavor and aroma profiles. Omic analyses (transcripts, proteins and metabolites) are powerful tools for assessing biochemical differences in biolog...

Open AccessVviERF6Ls: an expanded clade in Vitis responds transcriptionally to abiotic and biotic stresses and berry development
VviERF6Ls are an uncharacterized gene clade in Vitis with only distant Arabidopsis orthologs. Preliminary data indicated these transcription factors may play a role in berry development and extreme abiotic stress...
