RT journal article T1 Genetical, Morphological and Physicochemical Characterization of the Autochthonous Cultivar ‘Uva Rey’ (Vitis vinifera L.) A1 Sancho Galán, Pau A1 Amores Arrocha, Antonio A1 Palacios Macías, Víctor Manuel A1 Jiménez Cantizano, Ana Concepción A2 Ingeniería Química y Tecnología de Alimentos K1 Vitis vinifera K1 autochthonous cultivar K1 ’Uva Rey’ AB Uva Rey’ is considered an Andalusian (Spain) ancient autochthonous cultivar withhard white grapes used for the production of wine and raisins and also for raw consumption.Currently, this cultivar is not included in the o cial register of Spanish grapevine varieties andthere is neither a description nor a characterization that could facilitate its insertion in this register.In order to study this genetic resource, a genetic and morphological characterization of ’Uva Rey’has been carried out in comparison with ’Palomino Fino’, the main cultivar in Andalusia (Spain).Additionally, grape must physicochemical characterization and grape berry texture profile analyseswere performed. Genetically, ’Uva Rey’ was synonymous with the cultivar ’De Rey’. ’Uva Rey’ grapemust physicochemical results showed a lower sugar concentration and a higher malic acid contentcompared to ’Palomino Fino’ must, while the analysis of the grape berry texture profile proved tobe more consistent and cohesive. These results can be attributed to the longer phenological cyclepresented by ’Uva Rey’. All these facts could lead to consideration of ’Uva Rey’ as a cultivar for theproduction of white wines in warm climate regions.
