Peach rootstock tolerance to excess zinc in sandy acidic soil
(ISHS, 2017)In some areas dedicated to the cultivation of peach plants, soils are characterized by high levels of zinc (Zn) as a consequence of successive applications of Zn-containing fungicides and/or of animal manure as fertilizers. ... -
Photosynthesis and growth of young grapevines intercropped with native grasses in soils contaminated with copper
(ISHS, 2017)High copper (Cu) contents in vineyard soils characterized by long-term use of Cu-containing fungicides may cause physiological and nutritional disorders in young grapevines, limiting plant growth and sometimes compromising ... -
Effects of zinc addition to a copper-contaminated vineyard soil on sorption of Zn by soil and plant physiological responses
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2016)The occurrence of high levels of Cu in vineyard soils is often the result of intensive use of fungicides for the preventive control of foliar diseases and can cause toxicity to plants. Nowadays many grape growers in Southern ... -
The potential of Zea mays L. in remediating copper and zinc contaminated soils for grapevine production
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2016)The application of fungicides containing Cu and Zn in vineyards can lead to accumulation of these metals at toxic levels. The successive cultivation of maize in these areas can be an interesting alternative to alleviate ... -
Growth and chemical changes in the rhizosphere of black oat (Avena strigosa) grown in soils contaminated with copper
(2018)Copper based pesticides are used to protect vineyards from fungal infections. Plants like black oats (Avena strigosa Schreb) can promote chemical changes in the rhizosphere, reducing copper (Cu) bioavailability in contaminated ... -
Intercropping of young grapevines with native grasses for phytoremediation of Cu-contaminated soils
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2019)Intercropping may be a strategy for phytoremediation of vineyard soils with high copper (Cu) content. The study aimed to evaluate the contribution of South American native grasses in limiting Cu availability and toxicity ... -
