Tempranillo Navarra, and Penedès. During the 1990s, growers in Australia and South Africa started significant Tempranillo plantations. Tempranillo is a black grape with a thick skin. It grows best at relatively high altitudes, but it also can tolerate a much warmer climate. With regard to Tempranillo's production in various climates, wine expert Oz Clarke notes, In the Ribera del Duero the average July temperature is around 21.4° Celsius (70.5° Fahrenheit), though temperatures in the middle of the day in the lower valley can jump as high as 40 °C (104 °F). At night the region experiences a dramatic diurnal temperature variation,
Petite mutation petite negative mutants. Potentially, these yeasts have a different inheritance system in place for their mitchondrial genome than "S. cerevisiae" does. The frequency at which "S. castellii" spontaneously produces petites is similar to that of "S. cerevisiae", with the mitochondrial DNA of those petites being highly altered via deletion and rearrangement. Suppressive petites of "S. cerevisiae" are the most commonly observed spontaneously created mutants, whereas in "S. castellii," the most commonly observed spontaneous mutant is the neutral petite, further leading to speculation that the transference of this mutation differs between species.
