The Canadian wine industry has developed rapidly over the past decade, and Canadian wines are held in high-esteem both nationally and internationally. However, Canadian viticultural regions are characterized by short ripening seasons, which often limits the achievement of optimal fruit composition for the production of premium wines. Dr. Castellarin will study the biological mechanisms that control ripening in grapes and how they are affected by the climate in order to develop new viticultural practices for improving grape production in Canada, resulting in better fruit composition and a strong potential for higher quality and more valuable wine.

加拿大葡萄酒行业在过去十年中发展迅速，加拿大葡萄酒在国内和国际上都享有很高的声誉。然而，加拿大葡萄种植区的特点是成熟季节短，这往往限制了优质葡萄酒生产的最佳水果成分的实现。Castellarin博士将研究控制葡萄成熟的生物机制以及它们如何受到气候的影响，以开发新的葡萄栽培实践来提高加拿大的葡萄产量，从而获得更好的水果成分和更高质量和更有价值的葡萄酒的强大潜力。
