Plant growth is commonly understood to be determined by current temperature. Using a free-air cooling and heating system in the field, Keller and Tarara (pp. 131–141) show that much of the seasonal variation in shoot growth, shoot architecture and leaf-area development in Vitis vinifera may be introduced by bud-level differences in temperature around the time of budbreak.
Grapevines growing in Australiasuffer from high temperatures which have major effects on photosynthesis and transpiration. To learn more, gas exchange was measured in this study over several seasons and then modelled...
Shade cloth can be used to protect grapevines from high temperatures. However, the resulting low light intensity is shown to reduce photosynthesis, leading to lower carbon allocation to vegetative growth and sugar...
Plant cold hardiness varies dynamically throughout the dormant season, primarily in response to changes in temperature. Taking advantage of an extensive database of grapevine (Vitis spp.) bud hardiness measurements...
