American Journal of Enology and Viticulture
VerifiedJournal
The American Journal of Enology and Viticulture (AJEV), published quarterly, is an official journal of the American Society for Enology and Viticulture (ASEV) and is the premier journal in the English language dedicated to scientific research on winemaking and grapegrowing. AJEV publishes full-length research papers, literature reviews, research notes, and technical briefs on various aspects of enology and viticulture, including wine chemistry, sensory science, process engineering, wine quality assessments, microbiology, methods development, plant pathogenesis, diseases and pests of grape, rootstock and clonal evaluation, effect of field practices, and grape genetics and breeding. All papers are peer reviewed, and authorship of papers is not limited to members of ASEV. The science editor, along with the viticulture, enology, and associate editors, are drawn from academic and research institutions worldwide and guide the content of the Journal. Source

The American Journal of Enology and Viticulture (AJEV) employs a single-blind peer review process, whereby the authors of submitted text-based or video-based contributions are known to the reviewers, but the reviewers remain anonymous to the authors. Peer review, conducted by experts in the field of a submitted contribution, serves as a quality control process and ensures the credibility of AJEV by detecting potential flaws, errors, or unwarranted claims.
Evaluating Rootstock Performance: Efficiency and Stability Insights from a 16-Year Moscato bianco Study
Abstract Background and goals Grapevine rootstocks significantly influence scion vigor, yield, and fruit quality, making their appropriate selection vital for vineyard management. This study introduces two indices, the Rootstock Efficiency Index (REI) and Rootstock Stability Index (RSI), to assess rootstock performance based on scion vigor, yield, fruit quality, and vine balance.
Irrigation Timing Affects Grape Berry Cell Death and Late-Season Dehydration
cell death grapevine irrigation late-season dehydration physiology viticulture Introduction In many winegrape cultivars, berries are susceptible to dehydration late in the growing season, causing them to shrink as they approach phenolic ripeness (Fuentes et al. 2010). Late-season dehydration typically reduces yield and income per hectare by 10 to 30%, and severe cases can also affect wine and berry quality (Keller 2010, Bonada et al. 2013a, Šuklje et al. 2016, Chou et al. 2018).

A Comprehensive Analysis of Shared Challenges and Needs across U.S. Grape and Wine Regions
enology focus groups marketing questionnaire strategic planning viticulture Introduction The United States grape and wine industry has grown significantly over the past 50 yr, encompassing nearly all states and spanning across variable climates. In 2022, almost all 50 states were producing wines, generating an economic impact of $276 billion, with California representing a total impact of $88 billion (https://wineamerica.org/economic-impact-study/).
Conditioning Pre-Plant Grapevines Using Controlled Environment Agriculture Can Reduce Vineyard Establishment Time
The development of a PIVC enterprise budget enabled evaluation of key cost categories to determine areas for optimization of the nursery production of PIVC vines as starter plants for growers. Because costs were based on research conducted at a university, economies of scale available to a commercial grape nursery were not incorporated. For example, material costs were based on actual and published costs of low quantities.
Vineyard Irrigation: A Balancing Act with Consequences
