Vitis project

Grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) is one of the oldest and most important fruit crops in terms of cultivated area and economic impact. A big effort is ongoing to improve or at least maintain fruit quality and reduce the use of fungicides in the unstable context of climatic changes. A deeper knowledge of the grapevine physiology and biology is the pre-requisite to support a “green” sustainable viticulture.

OneGene project represents a unique tool to exploit the existing transcriptomic data of such a non-model but economically
important species to identify associations among genes and reconstruct gene networks, supporting molecular breeding
programs.
