Introduction
I’m a researcher in grapevine ecophysiology in aspects related to viticulture, canopy management, irrigation, and genetic diversity. These last years we have been focused on the adaptation to climate change, and its impacts on the main physiological processes involved in berry and wine composition. In parallel, we have been rescuing, conserving, and characterizing the enological potential of Argentinian and South American varieties.

Article
Higher temperatures in recent years have advanced berry ripening and harvest date, decoupling berry sugar accumulation of anthocyanins final concentration and therefore reducing wine potential color. Late pruning is proposed as a tool to modify phenology and to delay berry ripening later in the season when temperatures are lower. The aim of this wo...

The main limitation imposed by water deficit on photosynthesis is a decreased CO 2 diffusion to the chloroplast mediated by stomata closure. However, a decrease in mesophyll conductance, electron transport rate through photosystem II or a relative increase in photorespiration have also been observed in different studies. The degree of importance of...
