Phenotypic variation for bunch traits in 18 clones of the cultivar Riesling. Bunches were sampled in the field station at Hochschule Geisenheim University on 06/09/2024. Clones were collected from old vineyards over the last 30 years across different locations in Germany, France and Luxembourg. The standard set of nine simple sequence repeats markers (VVS2, VVMD5, VVMD7, VVMD25, VVMD27, VVMD28, VVMD32, VrZAG62 and VrZAG79) that is commonly used for cultivar recognition (Maul and Töpfer, 2015) identified all clones as Riesling. The colour mutant Red Riesling cannot be differentiated from White Riesling using those markers

Overview of the main grapevine breeding strategies and the improvement potential of modern breeding tools. Traditional grapevine breeding uses clonal selection and crossbreeding for scion and rootstock improvement, where conventional breeding cycles take at least 25 years. Efficiency could be greatly improved through the successful integration of new technologies including genomics, epigenomics, biotechnology and predictive breeding
