DOI: 10.1094/pdis-08-22-1802-sc
Abstract: Grapevine trunk diseases (GTDs) are serious threats worldwide and are difficult to control, in part because the environmental requirements for epidemiological processes of the causal fungi are poorly understood. We therefore investigated the effects of… read more here.
