Researchers have developed a new theoretical framework to understand how grapevine leaves adjust their structure and function under varying light conditions, revealing that thicker, less porous leaves with specific cell...
Plants regulate cellular oxygen partial pressures (pO2), together with reduction/oxidation (redox) state in order to manage rapid developmental transitions such as bud burst after a period of quiescence. However, our...
The bacterium Xylella fastidiosa, responsible for Pierce’s disease of grapevine, colonizes the xylem conduits of vines. Chatelet et al. examine the xylem structure of several varieties of grapevine, Vitis vinifera, and...
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...
Modelling axis organogenesis in grapevine (PMA Special Issue) Pallas et al. construct three plant growth models to improve the modelling of grapevine development and axis organogenesis in fluctuating environments; one...
