1,1,6-Trimethyl-1,2-dihydronaphthalene (TDN) is known to give a petrol note when smelling and tasting wine, which is most pronounced in Riesling varieties. Its increasing concentration has been linked to climate change. In the present work, a gas chromatographic method was used to quantify free TDN in "Italian Riesling", "Rhine Riesling", and "Kéknyelű" wines from Hungary. From the vintages 2010 to 2020, 39 bottles of wine from different wine regions were evaluated by instrumental analysis and sensory evaluation. Our aim is to determine the extent to which the Riesling wines in Hungary show a petrol character. The other objective was a comparison of sorts to see if there is a difference in TDN production potential between Italian Riesling and Rhine Riesling. We also aimed to clarify the question whether the Hungarian variety Kéknyelű is also capable of developing a petrol character. The wines we tested were corked and screw-locked. This allowed us to compare the difference in TDN concentration variation over time between the two closure methods.

Comparative Evaluation of Different Mint Species Based on Their In Vitro Antioxidant and Antibacterial Effect.

Plants (Basel)

January 2025

Department of Microbiology and Applied Biotechnology, Institute of Genetics and Biotechnology, Hungarian University of Agriculture and Life Sciences (MATE), Páter Károly utca 1., H-2100 Gödöllő, Hungary.

In our research six different mint species (peppermint, spearmint (five different chemotypes), Horse mint, mojito mint, apple mint (two different chemotypes), bergamot mint) have been evaluated by referring to their chemical (essential oil (EO) content and composition) and in vitro biological (antibacterial, antioxidant effect) characteristics. The EO amount of the analyzed mint populations varied between 1.99 and 3.

Biodiversity impacts of the 2019-2020 Australian megafires.

Nature

November 2024

Centre for Future Landscapes, School of Agriculture, Biomedicine and Environment, La Trobe University, Bundoora, Victoria, Australia.

With large wildfires becoming more frequent, we must rapidly learn how megafires impact biodiversity to prioritize mitigation and improve policy. A key challenge is to discover how interactions among fire-regime components, drought and land tenure shape wildfire impacts. The globally unprecedented 2019-2020 Australian megafires burnt more than 10 million hectares, prompting major investment in biodiversity monitoring.

The key to wide geographical distribution of wheat is its high adaptability. One of the most commonly used methods for studying adaptation is the investigation of transition between the vegetative-generative phase and the subsequent intensive stem elongation process. These processes are largely determined by changes in ambient temperature, the diurnal and annual periodicity of day length, and the composition of light spectrum.

Article Synopsis
  • The interaction between a necrotrophic pathogen and grape berries can lead to either noble rot (NR) or grey rot (GR), influenced by climate conditions.
  • This study investigates gene expression differences during various rot stages (grey rot, noble rot, and early developing rot) using multidimensional scaling and enrichment analyses.
  • Findings show that during the NR phase, grapevines lower their defense responses, indicating a balanced relationship with the pathogen, while the GR phase involves more aggressive plant-pathogen interactions.
