Shoot tipping, apical ethephon application, basal leaf removal, and lateral shoot removal
were evaluated for two years as means of reducing shade in the fruiting/renewal region of …

Seyval blanc grapevines trained to three canopy configurations in 1988 were evaluated for
vineyard perfor-mance, canopy development, and berry composition for a four year period …

Canopy modification by shoot topping or ethephon application was examined with
pendelbogen-trained White Riesling grapevines in the hot, humid Piedmont region of …

Leaf canopy structure of mature Pinot noir grapevines was manipulated during two
consecutive seasons: shoot tipping at full bloom (yes or no), lateral shoot length (no laterals …

Selective leaf removal from grapevine fruit zones was evaluated for three seasons as a
means of improving grape quality, especially with respect to fruit rot control. Mature White …

Abstract A three-year-study (1996-1998) was carried out on field-grown Sangiovese (clone
12 T) grapevines under the temperate, humid climate of the Po Valley (northern Italy) to …

'Seyval blanc'and 'Vidal blanc'grapevines (Vitis sp.) grown in large containers were root-
pruned at different severities and/or stages of development and the effects on growth of both …

Both localized shading of individual buds or shading entire shoots with neutral shade cloth
resulted in a 60% to 500% increase in the number of buds showing necrosis in Thompson …

Container-grown Seyval blanc grapevines were subjected to varying crop and leaf levels. In
adjusting leaf number, approximately 8 to 10 cm2 leaf area per gram of fruit weight gave …

This paper reviews the influence of canopy management practices on grapevine bud
fruitfulness and fruit yield per node. These practices include trellis‐training systems, shoot …
