Changes on grape volatile composition through elicitation with methyl jasmonate, chitosan, and a yeast extract in Tempranillo (Vitis vinifera L.) grapevines

Elicitors play a key role against pathogen infestation, becoming as an alternative to chemical pesticides by the improving secondary metabolites synthesis. Their effect on grape volatile compounds has been little investigated. This field trial aimed to study the foliar application of methyl jasmonate (MeJ), chitosan (CHT), and a yeast extract (YE) on grape volatile compounds by HS-SPME-GC–MS. The results showed that, in general, foliar elicitor application decreased the synthesis of grape volatile compounds. Depending of the treatment, MeJ and CHT showed the lowest total amounts of terpenoids, C13 norisoprenoids, benzenoids, and esters, together with the highest levels of C6 compounds. YE treatment applied to the grapevines barely affected the synthesis of volatile compounds in grapes. The importance of this work is to add information about the effects of elicitors on grape volatile composition in Tempranillo grapevines.
