Inverse modeling (IM) is a valuable tool in agriculture for estimating model parameters that
aid in decision-making. It is particularly useful when parameters cannot be directly …

Biostimulants have recently been used in sustainable agriculture systems to improve plant
growth and resilience to biotic and abiotic stress. In this study, foliar (ANEfl) and soil (ANEsl) …

Malic acid is the predominant organic acid in grape berries, and its content is affected by
abiotic factors such as temperature (fruit zone microclimate) and water (vine water status) …

Climate change is affecting global viticulture, increasing heatwaves and drought. Precision
irrigation, supported by robust water status indicators (WSIs), is inevitable in most of the …

Rising temperatures and water scarcity due to climate change are significant challenges for
Mediterranean viticulture, particularly in the Douro Valley, a prominent winemaking region …

Kiwifruit has, for a long time, been widely affected by a syndrome named “kiwifruit decline
syndrome”(KiDS). Several environmental factors have already been investigated looking for …

Adopting disease-tolerant grapevines is an efficient option to implement a smarter
management strategy limiting the environmental impacts linked to pesticide use. However …

3-Alkyl-2-methoxypyrazines (MPs) could be considered as off-flavor for red wine if the
concentration exceeds a certain threshold. It is unknown whether the vine water status has …

Managing grapevine water status is a key component for achieving optimal yield and wine
quality. Stem water potential (SWP) is used for determining the drought stress and is …

Winegrapes are a valuable ($70 billion) commodity, but climate change is predicted to
reduce grape yield and quality by exacerbating water and heat stress. Develo** stress …
