Scientists discovered that native bacteria from Chile, particularly Pseudomonas strains, can effectively control a serious fungus that damages grapevines. These bacteria work across a range of temperatures and successfully reduced fungal growth both in laboratory tests and in actual vineyards. This discovery offers a natural, environmentally-friendly alternative to chemical fungicides for protecting grape crops.
