The generalization ability of hyperspectral imaging combined with neural networks (NN) in estimating pH and anthocyanin content during ripening was evaluated for vintages and varieties not employed in the NN creation. A NN, from a previously published work, trained with grape samples of Touriga Franca (TF) variety harvested in 2012 was tested with TF from 2013 and two new varieties, Touriga Nacional (TN) and Tinta Barroca (TB) from 2013. Each sample contained a small number of whole berries. The present work results suggest that, under certain conditions, it might be possible for the NN to provide for new vintages and varieties results comparable to those of the vintages and varieties employed in the NN training. For pH, the results are state-of-the-art for the new vintage and varieties tested. For anthocyanin, generalization is bad for TB from 2013 but presents state-of-the-art absolute percentage error for TF and TN from 2013.

Background: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are identified as a novel family of endogenous RNA molecules through 'back-splicing' and covalently linked at the 5' and 3' ends. Emerging researches have demonstrated circRNAs are stable and abundant in exosomes called exosomal circRNAs (exo-circRNA).

Materials And Methods: We searched recent studies and references to summary the research progress of exosomal circRNA.

Background: Fortified wine is an important category in the wine world with very famous wines such as Porto or Jerez-wine type. The quality of fortified wines increased significantly with barrel aging not only because of a long oxidation process, but also because, in Porto wines such as Ruby or Vintage styles, the long period in bottle permits their fining. Reducing the time of oxidation can favor the development of this technique even for less known sweet wines, making them good quality and less expensive.

In recent years, Albania has seen a significant increase in wine production, which can be attributed to the growing interest in the diversity of native grape varieties. Among the most popular grape varieties are Kallmet, Shesh i zi (ShiZ), Shesh i bardhë (ShiB), and Cerruje, which are known for their distinctive wines as well as the planted area. A study was conducted to investigate the influence of the territory and vintage on phenolic compounds of single-variety wines from these grape varieties.

Influence of Potential Alcohol in Grapes on Phenolic and Sensory Characteristics of Red Wine.

Potential alcohol, as obtained by grape maturity, affects the extraction of phenolics during winemaking. The extent to which potential alcohol is correlated to phenolic and sensory characteristics of red wine was investigated. Decoupling of the ripening kinetics of grape constituents due to climate change emphasizes this question.

Understanding phenology, its genetics and agronomic consequences, is critical for crop adaptation. Here we aim to (i) characterize lentil response to photoperiod with a focus on five loci: the lentil ELF3 orthologue Sn, two loci linked to clusters of lentil FT orthologues, and two loci without candidates in chromosomes 2 and 5 (Experiment 1: 36 lines, short and long days in a phytotron), and (ii) establish the phenology-yield relationship (Experiment 2: 25 lines, 11 field environments). A vintage perspective, where we quantify time trends in phenotype over three decades of breeding, links both experiments.
