Implications of root morphology and anatomy for water deficit tolerance and recovery of grapevine rootstocks

Frontiers in Plant Science
The intensification of drought conditions due to climate change poses a major challenge to sustainable grape production. Rootstocks are essential in supporting grapevine water uptake and drought resilience; however, their physiological responses to water

Nitrogen isotope ratio (δ15N): a nearly unexplored indicator that provides useful information in viticulture

OENO One
The study of the natural abundance of nitrogen-stable isotopes is an aspect of viticulture research that has received limited attention. While stable isotopes of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen have received significant attention, nitrogen isotope ratio ...

Conserved stomatal regulation across winegrape cultivars challenges conclusions regarding hydraulic strategies

BMC Plant Biology
Background Plants are often classified on a spectrum from isohydric to anisohydric depending on the extent of stomatal regulation of plant water status, but this concept remains controversial.
