A technique for reliable labeling of the carbon reserves of the trunk and roots without labeling
the current year's growth of grapevines was developed in order to study retranslocation of …

… of berries per cluster was not influenced by defoliation, probably because the leaves were
removed after the critical period for berry drop which, according to Candolfi-Vasconcelos (5) is …

… Candolfi-Vasconcelos and Koblet (4) showed that lateral shoot growth could replace the
missing leaf area, and at harvest time, they found no differences between the total leaf area of …

The impact of the grape leafhopper, Empoasca vitis, on leaf gas exchange, plant growth,
yield, fruit quality and carbohydrate reserves of the grapevines, Vitis vinifera L., was studied. …

Leaf removal has been increasingly employed to improve the cluster microclimate. Leaf loss
has been suggested to reduce fruitfulness and hardiness of buds at that node. Before such …

Rootstock trials established in Oregon's three main viticultural regions were evaluated for the
effect of rootstock on petiole nutrient content at four vineyard sites during the 1996 growing …

A review of the responses to stresses of grapes grown in Switzerland is given. These stresses
included: low light or temperature; low water or nutrient availability; hail; frost; inadequate …

Pests, diseases and unfavorable weather conditions can strongly reduce the functional leaf
area of the grapevines. Mechanical defoliation applied to promote a better microclimate of …

Experiments were conducted in a growth chamber with cultivars Riesling × Silvaner and
