Objectives of proposed research:
1. Investigate the relationship between abscisic acid (ABA) and auxins and the regulation of carbon partitioning.
2. Investigate the origin of ABA present in the fruit during ripening and attempt to modify the partitioning pattern through manipulation of endogenous ABA levels using mefluidide (ABA biosynthesis promoter)...
An approximation of the total yeast fermentable nitrogen content in juice or must is taken as the sum of the nitrogen available from ammonia and the alpha-amino acids present (Bisson 1991 ; Dukes and Butzke 1998 ; Jiranek, Langridge, and Henshcke 1995). Recommended levels of fermentable nitrogen needed by yeast...
