Effects of Vineyard Managements on Grape and Wine Quality in Response to Grapevine Red Blotch Disease

Creator:: Huang, Ling
Abstract:: Grapevine red blotch virus (GRBV) is a single-stranded DNA virus that causes grapevine red blotch disease (GRBD). Symptoms of GRBD include red discoloring of leaf margins and red veins on the underside of the leaves. GRBD affects the plant's metabolism and photosynthetic pathways, and disrupts carbon translocation and chlorophyll concentrations....

Aroma comparison of 'Marion' (Rubus sp. L.) and 'Thornless Evergreen' (R. laciniatus L.) blackberries

Creator:: Klesk, Keith
Abstract:: 'Marion' and 'Thornless Evergreen' blackberry volatiles were analyzed by capillary gas chromatography-flame ionization detection (GC-FED) and GC-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Based on total percentage of FID area 'Thornless Evergreen' contains significantly more alcohols, hydrocarbons, and phenols than the 'Marion'; 'Marion' contains more acids and esters. Both cultivars contained comparable amounts of...

Effect of Regulated Deficit Irrigation on Malbec and Syrah Grape and Wine Quality

Creator:: Yuan, Xiaoxi
Abstract:: The water status of grape vine throughout the growing season is a primary determinant of vine vigor and berry composition. The concentrations of volatile compounds and precursors in grape berries are highly influenced by viticultural practices. Imposing a water deficit on the vine during berry development is an important vineyard...

Evaluation of the off-flavor in English sole (Parophrys vetulus) using descriptive analysis techniques and consumer testing

Creator:: Geise, Laura Ann
Abstract:: English sole (Parophrys vetulus) is a flatfish found in abundance in the Pacific Ocean and is part of the Pacific Northwest's and California's commercial trawl fishery. Stock levels of this fish are at all time highs but there are decreased landings due to low demand and acceptability. With new regulations...

Hydrolytic methods for the quantification of fructose-equivalents in herbaceous biomass

Creator:: Nguyen, Stefanie K.
Abstract:: A low, but significant, fraction of the carbohydrate portion of herbaceous biomass may be composed of fructose/fructosyl-containing components (“fructose equivalents”); such carbohydrates include sucrose, fructo-oligosaccharides, and fructans. Standard methods used for the quantification of structural-carbohydrate-derived neutral monosaccharide-equivalents in biomass are not particularly well suited for the quantification of fructose equivalents...

Development of volatile compounds in Pinot noir grapes and their contributions to wine aroma

Creator:: Fang, Yu
Abstract:: It is often perceived that late maturity of grape gives a more complex aroma profile to Pinot noir wine, however, there is little understanding of the basic flavor chemistry of grape maturity on wine aroma. The aroma contributing compounds in Pinot noir were first identified by aroma extract dilution analysis...

Interactions of Trichoderma reesei exo-acting cellulases with p-aminophenyl 1-thio-β-D-cellobioside

Creator:: Piyachomkwan, Kuakoon
Abstract:: Cellulolytic enzymes capable of efficiently degrading crystalline cellulose are a complex mixture of endo- (endoglucanases) and exo-acting (cellobiohydrolases) enzymes. One approach to separating these enzymes is affinity chromatography. A new ligand, p-aminophenyl l-thio-β-D-cellobioside (APTC), is introduced for this purpose. The property of APTC in affinity chromatography is demonstrated using Trichoderma...
