Project Name | Investigation of the underlying resilience and physiological adaptive response of the bona fide Cypriot indigenous grape cultivar cv. ‘Xynisteri’ to climate change |
Project Detail | How a Cypriot grape cultivar can resist climate change impacts The adverse effects of a changing climate are already pushing traditional and new-world wine-growing regions to their limits. Certain local grape varieties found on Cyprus are known to have a very high heat and drought tolerance; however, their resilience remains to a large extent scientifically unexplored. The EU-funded REXyCLIMA project will investigate the underlying resilience and physiological adaptive response of the Cypriot grape cultivar Xynisteri to climate change. The aim is to use scientific data to determine the suitability of Xynisteri as a long-term adaptation measure for countries whose viticulture is already negatively impacted by increasingly warm and dry growing conditions. |
