Abstract

This research was conducted to determine the changes in the seasonal carbohydrates of annual shoots and growth characteristics of 10 years old ‘Trakya İlkeren’ grape variety. Grapevines are grafted on 5BB and 5C rootstocks and they were grown in heavy clay soil conditions. In the study, changes of sugar, starch and total carbohydrates were determined from bud burst to dormancy. While sugar, starch and total carbohydrates showed significant differences (P < 0.01) there were no differences between rootstocks. Although sugar, starch and total carbohydrates of shoots decreased from bud burst to blooming, they increased thereafter until vegetative growth stopped. Total carbohydrates of annual shoots have been found to accumulate in period from blooming to harvest. Total and mean leaf area, shoot length and diameter, total chlorophyll and chlorophyll a/b ratio showed significantly variation among rootstocks and phenological stages (P < 0.01). Whereas the highest chlorophyll contents were found in the blooming, it was found at the lowest through to harvest. Overall mean and total leaf area, shoot length and shoot diameter, total chlorophyll content and chlorophyll a/b ratio were significantly higher on 5BB grafted vines. In the study, 5BB rootstocks are found suitable in terms of shoot carbohydrate accumulation and growth characteristics for ‘Trakya İlkeren’ grape variety.

Zusammenfassung

Diese Forschungsarbeit wurde durchgeführt, um die saisonalen Veränderungen von Kohlenhydratgehalten bei Jahrestrieben und die Wachstumseigenschaften von 10 Jahre alten Reben der Sorte ‘Trakya İlkeren’ zu untersuchen. Die Rebsorte war auf den Unterlagen 5BB und 5C veredelt und auf schwerem Lehmboden gepflanzt. Vom Knospenaufbruch bis zur Vegetationsruhe wurden in dieser Studie Veränderungen im Zucker-, Stärke-, und Gesamtkohlenhydratgehalt bestimmt. Zucker-, Stärke-, und Gesamtkohlenhydratgehalte zeigten im Verlauf der Vegetationsperiode signifikante Unterschiede (P < 0,01), wobei es keine Unterschiede zwischen den Unterlagen gab. Auch wenn in den Sprossen Zucker-, Stärke-, und Kohlenhydratgehalte vom Knospenaufbruch bis zum Blühbeginn abnahmen, stiegen sie danach bis zum Ende des vegetativen Wachstums wieder an. Kohlenhydrate wurden in der Zeit vom Blühbeginn bis zur Ernte in der Pflanze akkumuliert. Die gesamte und mittlere Blattfläche, die Trieblänge und der -durchmesser, der Chlorophyllgehalt und das Verhältnis von Chlorophyll a zu b zeigten signifikante Unterschiede zwischen den Unterlagen und den phänologischen Entwicklungsstadien (P < 0,01). Während die höchsten Chlorophyllgehalte zu Blühbeginn gefunden wurden, wurden die niedrigsten bei der Ernte festgestellt. Insgesamt lässt sich sagen, dass mittlere und gesamte Blattfläche, Trieblänge und -durchmesser, Gesamtchlorophyllgehalt und das Verhältnis von Chlorophyll a zu b bei Reben, die auf der Unterlage 5BB veredelt waren, signifikant höher ausfielen als auf der Unterlage 5C. Die Unterlage 5BB ist daher hinsichtlich Akkumulation von Kohlenhydraten im Spross und der Wuchsbeeinflussung für die Rebsorte ‘Trakya İlkeren’ geeignet.
