Clone

A

AKA biotype, selection, type
Definition according to OIV: A clone is the vegetative progeny of a single vine plant. For selection purposes this single plant is chosen for its varietal identity, its phenotypic traits and its sanitary state.

Q

Eukaryot versus prokaryot cells

A

-Minor variations (quantitative): interaction with
environment = Clones
-Major variation (qualitative): stable and noticeable = Cultivars/varieties

30
Q

give examples of quantitative variations between clones

A

-Morphology (Hairs, color, lobes, berry shape)
-Shoot attitude, (vigour)
-Susceptibility to diseases?
-Yield components
-Fertility, berry set, compactness, bunch size, berry size
-Sugar content and acidity
-Colour and phenolic compounds

31
Q

Origins of clonal variations

A
  1. Somatic mutations (change in DNA sequence)
  2. Epigenetic modifications (changes in gene expression not attributable to a change in DNA sequence = DNA methylation, modifications to chromatin structure, loss of imprinting, and non-coding RNA)
  3. Sanitary status (viruses fuck with genes)
32
Q

Somatic mutation

A

-change in DNA sequence
-natural or induced

33
Q

Epigenic variation

A

-DNA variation without sequence change

Q

Sanitary variation
