Influence of METHYL JASMONATE (cas 1211-29-6) and benzothiadiazole on the composition of grape skin cell walls and wines

Phenolic compounds are very important in crop plants, particularly in grapes. The different strategies to increase their levels include the use of elicitors such as METHYL JASMONATE (cas 1211-29-6) (MeJ) and benzothiadiazole (BTH). In an attempt to improve the quality of wines, our aim was to evaluate the effect of preharvest application of these elicitors on the composition and structure of the skin cell walls of Monastrell, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, and to ascertain any relationship with the extractability of phenolic compounds during winemaking. The results indicated that the exogenous application of MeJ and BTH during veraison caused significant changes in several components of the skin cell walls, such as phenolic compounds, proteins and structural sugars. However these changes manifested themselves in different proportions in each variety and year, pointing to the varietal and meteorological dependence of the response to the application of these elicitors. The treatments delayed the maturation process in all varieties when rainfall was low. This observation, together with the observed increase in proteins and phenols in the skin cell wall of Monastrell and Cabernet Sauvignon, could contribute to the strength necessary to maintain the integrity of berries and to increasing resistance to fungal pathogens as the phenolic compounds evolve, thus improving the phenolic profile. However, the structural integrity of Merlot variety tended to decrease in the same conditions.
