TL;DR: The data suggest that in grapevine stomatal conductance is primarily regulated by passive hydraulic mechanisms, suggesting the occurrence of a mechanism of long-term down-regulation of transpiration to favor embolism repair and preserve water under conditions of fluctuating water availability and repeated drought events.

TL;DR: The authors' data indicate that resistance in V. riparia is induced after infection, and is not based on differences in basal gene expression between the two species, and could be exploited in future biotechnological approaches to increase disease resistance in susceptible grapevine species.

TL;DR: There is evidence that this biotransformation process is enantioselective, and procedures for a chromatographic separation of enantiomers and acid metabolites of the fungicides and for the determination of the R:S ratio by HPLC chiral analyses are proposed.

TL;DR: The degradation of the two stereoisomers of Metalaxyl proved to be enantioselective and dependent on the media: the (+)-(S)-enantiomer showed a faster degradation in plants, while the (-)-(R-enantiomers showed a Faster degradation in soil.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the evolution of water extractable organic matter (WEOM) from the percolate during the HSADB process and test the possibility of using the digestate as a soil amendment.
