An assessment of the spectral discrimination between different vine varieties was undertaken using non-destructive remote sensing observations at the véraison period. During concurrent satellite, aerial and field campaigns, in-situ reflectance data were collected from a spectroradiometer, hyperspectral data were acquired from a UAV and multispectral data from a high-resolution satellite imaging...

UNLABELLED Grapevine is a well-studied, economically relevant crop, whose associated bacteria could influence its organoleptic properties. In this study, the spatial and temporal dynamics of the bacterial communities associated with grapevine organs (leaves, flowers, grapes, and roots) and soils were characterized over two growing seasons to determine the influence of vine cultivar, edaphic par...

Pozega-Slavonia County has a long tradition of viticulture and oenology at which it becomes ever more recognizable. Although this is the economic segment of high importance for the local economy and regional development this study has shown that there is low percentage of representation in relation to the total agriculture potential of the county. In Republic of Croatia there are counties with ...

A new graphical model, called a vine, for dependent random variables is introduced. Vines generalize the Markov trees often used in modelling high-dimensional distributions. They diier from Markov trees and Bayesian belief nets in that the concept of conditional independence is weakened to allow for various forms of conditional dependence. Vines can be used to specify multivariate distributions...

economi(about 15%) ) was rarely ­ mechacally important and the ­ nisms leading to reduction were not clear. For example, l , there numwere few differences f in the ­ berr off leafhopperr predators or parasitoids on i the vines in cover cropped versus no coverr sigplots. However, r, there were ­ differnificant between-treatment ­ ences in vine growth. Plots with seasonwide maintenance off a cove...

The objective of this study was to construct a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based genetic map at the cultivated tetraploid level to locate quantitative trait loci (QTL) contributing to economically important traits in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.). The 156 F1 progeny and parents of a cross (MSL603) between "Jacqueline Lee" and "MSG227-2" were genotyped using the Infinium 8303 Potato Arr...

Using only bivariate copulas as building blocks, regular vines constitute a flexible class of high-dimensional dependency models. However, the flexibility comes along with an exponentially increasing complexity in larger dimensions. In order to counteract this problem, we propose using statistical model selection techniques to either truncate or simplify a regular vine. As a special case, we co...
