Use of mannans as an elicitor of the defense response on Vitis vinifera against fungi causing Grapevine Trunk Diseases. [PDF]
PLoS ONEGrapevine Trunk Diseases (GTDs) are caused by phytopathogenic fungi that compromise grapevine productivity and wine quality. Most GTDs preventive treatments are chemical-based and environmentally harmful. One goal of the European Green Deal is to develop
