Botryosphaeria-related dieback and control investigated in noncoastal California grapevines

Grapevine Botryosphaeria dieback fungi have specific aggressiveness factor repertory involved in wood decay and stilbene metabolization

Grapevine trunk diseases: Eutypa dieback, esca and Botryosphaeria dieback, which incidence has increased recently, are associated with several symptoms finally leading to the plant death. In the absence of efficient treatments, these diseases are a major problem for the viticulture; however, the factors involved in disease progression are not still fully identified. In order to get a better und...

SWMREC Report #17 CROP CONTROL IN GRAPEVINES

development and implementation of an optimized control strategy for induction machine in an electric vehicle

in the area of automotive engineering there is a tendency to more electrification of power train. in this work control of an induction machine for the application of electric vehicle is investigated. through the changing operating point of the machine, adapting the rotor magnetization current seems to be useful to increase the machines efficiency. in the literature there are many approaches wh...

Across the United States from California to Florida and as far north as Virginia, grapevines

Across the United States from California to Florida and as far north as Virginia, grapevines are succumbing to Pierce’s Disease (PD) which currently infects more than 30% of grapevines and is a threat to the $30 billion wine industry. PD is caused by the bacterial pathogen, Xylella fastidiosa, which blocks water from flowing through the xylem of plants. Affected grapevines develop leaves that a...

Defense Responses in Grapevine (cv. Mourvèdre) after Inoculation with the Botryosphaeria Dieback Pathogens Neofusicoccum parvum and Diplodia seriata and Their Relationship with Flowering

As a result of the increasing economic impact of grapevine trunk diseases on viticulture worldwide, efficient and viable control strategies are urgently needed. However, understanding both plant-pathogen interactions and plant physiological changes related to these diseases is fundamental to such an achievement. In this study, we analyzed the effect of inoculation with the Botryosphaeria diebac...
