Genomic structure and ex situ conservation of the North American grapevine Vitis labrusca

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The North American wild grapevine species Vitis labrusca is an important source of disease resistance and climate resilience traits for breeding new grapevine cultivars. To ensure its continued use in breeding, V. labrusca must be accurately identified and genetically diverse material must be conserved.

Weeds in a changing climate: Competitors or service plants?

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Reducing herbicide use and preparing agroecosystems for climate change are two top priorities on the global policy agenda. Here, we explore whether these two challenges can be tackled simultaneously. While weeds are generally considered a threat to crop production, we show that weeds can help overcome climate change challenges in agroecosystems ...

Strategic irrigation management in Australian vineyards

OENO One, 2001
<p style="text-align: justify;">Regulated Deficit Irrigation (RDI) and Partial Rootzone Drying (PRD) are examples of strategie irrigation management. They have been successfully adopted for winegrape production in Australia with the aim of controlling vegetative growth to produce 'balanced' vines, and to improve both water-use efficiency ...

Grape (Vitis L.) biodiversity: Historical uses, current status, and future potential

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Grapes (Vitis L. ‐ Vitaceae) are among the most important fruit crops globally, consumed in the form of wine, fresh fruit, raisins, and in many products. Complex and fascinating biocultural processes underpin the crop, with a remarkable assemblage of species comprising grapevines and with heterogeneous viticultural practices and rapidly advancing new ...

A sample of Italian vineyards: Landscape and management parameters dataset

Data in Brief, 2020
Agricultural land use plays a critical role in land planning sustainability. Employing a GIS-based decision-making protocol based on spatial and management data represents an appropriate tool for land planning. The Italian vineyards database presented here describes several spatial and management features of 3686 sample vineyards distributed throughout

Conservation gap analysis for wild grapevines (Vitis L.) of the Americas

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Wild grapevines (Vitis L.) native to the Americas are ecologically and culturally important plants that are also critical to the global cultivated grape industry as sources of traits for crop innovation, but many of these species are poorly documented and insufficiently conserved.

Synergistic benefits of agrivoltaics for grape production and solar energy efficiency in a Mediterranean vineyard

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Grapevine production is increasingly challenged by global warming, with global wine output falling to a six‐decade low in 2024. At the same time, the vine and wine sector faces growing pressure to reduce its carbon footprint. Agrivoltaics, which integrates solar photovoltaic (PV) modules into plant production systems, offers a potential pathway to ...
