Microbiota of grapevine woody tissues with or without esca-foliar symptoms in northeast Spain
(Firenze University Press, 2018-07-20)
Grapevine Trunk Diseases (GTDs), particularly esca, are major concerns in Spain. This study characterized the fungal and bacterial communities in a 30-year-old ‘Cabernet Sauvignon’ vineyard in Catalonia, ...
Fine mapping and identification of candidate genes for the peach powdery mildew resistance gene Vr3
(Springer Nature, 2020-11-01)
Powdery mildew is one of the major diseases of peach (Prunus persica), caused by the ascomycete Podosphaera pannosa. Currently, it is controlled through calendar-based fungicide treatments starting at ...
Evaluation of Fungicides and Application Strategies for the Management of the Red Leaf Blotch Disease of Almond
(MDPI, 2022-06-04)
Red leaf blotch (RLB) of almond, caused by Polystigma amygdalinum, is an important foliar
disease of this nut tree in the Mediterranean basin and especially in Spain. In recent years, the
