Contenuto
Global warming is presenting new challenges to agriculture and in particular to the cultivation of grapevines (Vitis vinifera L.) for wine production. Over the past decade, numerous researchers have been studying vineyard management techniques that can help grape growers to mitigate different climate change induced issues, which usually leads to a decline in yield and a decay in grape quality. In this book are reported the findings of the experiments conducted by Gianluca Allegro during his doctoral research, in which he addressed the effects of climate change adaptation strategies on berry composition, with particular attention to the polyphenolic compounds that are crucial for the sensory characteristics of high-quality wines.
