Muscadine Grape Production in the Home Garden - FSA6108.
A new technique that uses ozone to preserve grapes could help prevent allergies and boost healthy compounds at the same time. The same technique could be used in the wine-making process to produce healthier wines without the added sulphites that can cause asthma and other conditions in some people.
The project began in the fall of 2002, when students decided to apply chemistry to community needs. Wine-making is a major agricultural sector in the Valley and we wanted to find out what value remained in its waste materials, Leber says.
The white flecking seen on these grape leaves is the result of the grape leafhoppers puncturing the cells on the underside of the leaves and sucking out the sap. The brown splotches are areas of dead tissue resulting from severe injury by this insect.
The natural world is full of chance events and surprising coincidences, some of which are truly wonderful. In the past few weeks, for example, Ive been reading about one genetic fluke for which wine lovers like me should be very thankful.
