“…Color quality analysis for both seasons suggests that lightness values among all the grapes decreased over time, starting from V until harvest (Table 3). However, it has been confirmed that the two applications of S-ABA at different timings of V significantly decrease L* values (Tecchio et al, 2017).…”

“…However, this slight change in color purity is undetectable to the naked eye and has no negative effect on the market value of the grapes (Olivares et al, 2017). Some studies have reported S-ABA has no effect on h° (Yamamoto et al, 2015;Tecchio et al, 2017). However, in 2015 season, the h°decreased along with L* (Table 3), implying a diversion from the green towards red color (Olivares et al, 2017).…”

“…However, untreated berries were recorded with a significantly high L* as compared to those of the treated grapes (Olivares et al, 2017). Lower L* value suggests a darker color among the S-ABA treated berries than that in the untreated berries, which have higher L* readings (Roberto et al, 2012;Domingues Neto et al, 2017;Tecchio et al, 2017). Lower C*, as a result of the S-ABA application (Table 3), indicates a low color purity (Cantín et al, 2007;Ferrara et al, 2013Ferrara et al, , 2015.…”

“…However, results derived from these treatments are statistically at par with each other, implying the availability of a longer window for application from PRV to POV. This increase in anthocyanin is explained by the fact that the application of S-ABA, at different time points during maturation, enhances the level of secondary metabolites in grapes, specifically by triggering the biosynthesis of anthocyanins (Tecchio et al, 2017).…”

Grapes grown under warm climate conditions tend to show less color development, and this phenomenon is attributed to low anthocyanin accumulation in berry skin in response to high temperature during ripening. 'Benitaka' (Vitis vinifera L.) is a table grape that shows poor color development when grown under a subtropical condition, and the exogenous application of (S)-cis-abscisic acid (S-ABA) is a recently developed technique used to overcome this difficulty. Trials were conducted during two crop seasons in a commercial vineyard containing 11-year-old 'Benitaka' vines grafted onto 'IAC 766 Campinas' rootstocks in Marialva, State of Parana (PR), Brazil. The vines were trained on an overhead trellis system, covered with a black plastic mash, and spaced 3.0 × 6.0 m apart. A randomized block design was used and treatments included the application of 400 mg L −1 of S-ABA at different stages of ripening, as follows: Control (no application); At pre-veraison (PRV) (7 days before veraison); At veraison (V); and At post-veraison (POV) (7 days after V). A second application was performed for all treatments, 10 days after the first application, except for the control. The analysis of berries included, total and daily anthocyanins accumulation, the color index of red grapes (CIRG), daily CIRG development, lightness (L*), chroma (C*), hue angle (h°), mass, length, width, firmness, total soluble solids (TSS), titratable acidy (TA), the index of maturation (TSS/TA), and total polyphenols of berries. The exogenous application of S-ABA from PRV to POV significantly enhanced the contents and rates of total anthocyanins accumulation and the CIRG of 'Benitaka' table grape; however, the application at PRV and V provided a higher response. A stronger correlation exists between anthocyanin concentration and the color index of berry skin, however, the main physicochemical characteristics of berries are not significantly affected by the use of S-ABA. Berry firmness varies in response to S-ABA application, but not to an extent at which it compromises berry quality for commercial use.

“…In different red grape cultivars, ABA treatments induced also a more rapid coloring of the berry skin anticipating harvest and increasing the amount of marketable yield, without negative effects on sugar and acid content [9,14]. Some cultivars, such as "Crimson Seedless", need just one application of ABA [10], but others like "Niagara Rosada" and "Rubí" require several applications [15,16]. In warm areas, two applications of ABA are often needed [2].…”

Lack of color in the skin of red table grape varieties is a serious problem in areas of warm climate. This problem is often addressed by the application of ethylene release products such as ethephon. Strict regulation in the use of this product in EU forces European grape producers to look for suitable alternatives. With the aim to increase red skin color, we applied regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) strategies from veraison until harvest on “Flame Seedless” table grape vines cultivated under nets and under a plastic greenhouse in South East Spain, and compared yield and fruit quality with vines fully irrigated under the same net and plastic greenhouses. Our results show a modest improvement in the percentage of commercial clusters with better skin color, probably because the short duration of the deficit irrigation period only caused a slight decrease in soil water content and a mild water stress in RDI vines. Larger differences were observed under the more limiting conditions of the plastic greenhouse for light environment, especially when berry skin color was measured by CIRG (color index of red grape). More noticeable effect of RDI was noted on fruit earliness. Water savings were also remarkable. Negative effects of RDI on berry size or total soluble solid content were not perceived. Our results suggest that RDI is a suitable strategy to save irrigation water without substantial negative effects on yield and berry size. However, the effects on skin color were insufficient in the trial conditions.

Anthocyanin Accumulation and Color Development of ‘Benitaka’ Table Grape Subjected to Exogenous Abscisic Acid Application at Different Timings of Ripening

In colored table grapes, the anthocyanin contents are inhibited by the high temperature during ripening and berries suffer a lack of skin color, thus affecting their market value. In order to overcome this issue, a research study was planned to evaluate the influence of (S)-cis-abscisic acid (S-ABA) on rates of anthocyanin accumulation in table grapes when applied at different timings of ripening, and to quantify the gradual increase of berry color. The study was conducted in a commercial vineyard of ‘Benitaka’ table grapes (Vitis vinifera L.), grown under double annual cropping system in a subtropical area. The trials were carried out during two consecutive seasons (i.e., summer season of 2015 and off-season of 2016). The treatments used for the experiments contained 400 mg L−1 S-ABA applied at different timings of veraison (the onset of ripening), as follows: control (with no application); at pre-veraison (PRV); at veraison (V); and at post-veraison (POV). For all S-ABA treatments, a second application was performed 10 days after the first application. Berries were analyzed for weekly and daily anthocyanin accumulations, weekly and daily color index development (CIRG), total soluble solids (TSS) content, titratable acidity (TA), and maturation index (TSS/TA). Grapes subjected to exogenous application of S-ABA at any time of veraison, especially at PRV or at V, significantly increased the anthocyanin accumulation as well as berry color index development. Other chemical properties of grapes (i.e., TSS, TA, and TSS/TA evolution) were not affected by the use of S-ABA and followed a predictable pattern in relation to days of berries ripening.
