Adoption Dynamics of Fungus‐Resistant Grapevine Varieties: A Real Options Approach
ABSTRACT Viticulture is a key economic sector in Europe, but responsible for vast amounts of fungicide use. Fungus‐resistant grapevine varieties are less susceptible to fungal diseases, reducing fungicide use by up to 80%. However, their adoption remains limited, despite their economic and environmental advantages.

Impact of Alternative Fungicides on Grape Downy Mildew Control and Vine Growth and Development [PDF]
Grapevine downy mildew (GDM) is one of the most serious diseases of grapevines. With limitations in the use of copper-based products imposed for organic agriculture by the European Union, research for alternatives is encouraged. The aim of this research was to follow a 2-year trial to evaluate the control of GDM using some alternative compounds, and to

Abstract BACKGROUND Fungus‐resistant PIWI (Pilzwiderstandsfähig) grape cultivars are promising for reducing pesticide inputs in viticulture, but their enological potential is still poorly characterized. We performed a pilot, single‐vintage study integrating berry gene expression and phenolic composition in five Italian red PIWI cultivars (Cabernet ...

This review highlights recent advances in understanding how plant protection programs and alternative fungicides affect the taxonomic composition of the grapevine phyllosphere microbiota. Bacterial and fungal communities are primarily shaped by the plant compartment, vineyard location, and sampling time. Plant protection programs generally have a minor
