Mycorrhizae and grapevines: the known unknowns of their interaction for wine growers’ challenges

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi form beneficial partnerships with grapevine roots, helping plants absorb water and nutrients while improving stress tolerance. These fungi relationships begin in plant nurseries and continue in vineyards, but their effectiveness depends on the specific fungus species, vine variety, and farming practices like soil management and herbicide use. Using these fungi as biological stimulants could help grapevines cope with climate change challenges like drought and heat, though more field studies are needed to confirm their practical benefits.

Identification of Trichoderma spp., Their Biomanagement Against Fusarium proliferatum, and Growth Promotion of Zea mays

Researchers isolated and tested special fungi called Trichoderma that can fight crop disease-causing fungi and promote plant growth. When applied to maize plants infected with disease-causing Fusarium, the Trichoderma fungi completely eliminated the disease and made the plants grow healthier and larger. This natural approach offers farmers a chemical-free alternative to protect crops while improving plant health.
