Using commercial property rental records, our study allows us to understand sectoral variation and the distribution of businesses across the city and to assess both the absolute and relative contribution of women ...

Vine, Wine and Wine-Cellars-Winepresses as the Treasury of Cultural Heritage
ქართველი და უცხოელი(დასავლეთ ევროპელი) სპეციალისტი მკვლევარების მიერ საქართველო იმ არეალშია მოქცეული, სადაც თავდაპირველად ჩაისახა და განვითარდა მევენახეობა. საქართველოა მიჩნეული მცირე აზიასთან ერთად ვაზისა და ღვინის სამშობლოდ. ამაზე მიუთითებს საქართველოს ტერიტორიაზე ველური ვაზის მრავლად არსებობა, კულტურული ვაზის ჯიშების სიმრავლე, თქმულება-გადმოცემები ...

ABSTRACT A recent raft of due diligence regulation (DDR) addressing social and environmental conditions in global value chains (GVCs) has spread across the UK and Europe. An emerging literature on DDR highlights the politics of its formation. Yet, we know little about how existing sustainability governance along GVCs interacts with DDR or the wider ...

The mitochondrial genome of the ethanol-metabolizing, wine cellar mold Zasmidium cellare is the smallest for a filamentous ascomycete [PDF]
Fungi in the class Dothideomycetes often live in extreme environments or have unusual physiology. One of these, the wine cellar mold Zasmidium cellare, produces thick curtains of mycelia in cellars with high humidity, and its ability to metabolize volatile organic compounds is thought to improve air quality.

Obesity and the Politics of Taddeo di Bartolo's Inferno
ABSTRACT This paper examines Taddeo di Bartolo's depiction of Hell in the Collegiata di Santa Maria Assunta, the mother church of San Gimignano.

A Computer Vision System for Visual Grape Grading in Wine Cellars [PDF]
This communication describes a computer vision system for automatic visual inspection and classification of grapes in cooperative wine cellars. The system is intended to work outdoors, so robust algorithms for preprocessing and segmentation are implemented. Specific methods for illumination compensation have been developed.

Abstract BACKGROUND Fungus‐resistant PIWI (Pilzwiderstandsfähig) grape cultivars are promising for reducing pesticide inputs in viticulture, but their enological potential is still poorly characterized. We performed a pilot, single‐vintage study integrating berry gene expression and phenolic composition in five Italian red PIWI cultivars (Cabernet ...
