Terroir and farming practices drive arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal communities in French vineyards
Published 2025-02-01“…Although much is known about grapevine benefits from Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF), little is known about the influence of vineyard terroir and farming practices on AMF communities.MethodsWe examined the relative effect of wine terroir and agricultural practices (organic, conversion, and conventional) on AMF abundance and diversity across 75 vineyards distributed over 14 wine terroirs in 6 winegrowing regions in France. We estimate AMF abundance by measuring spore density and root mycorrhization rates, and characterize AMF communities composition using metabarcoding by sampling both root and spore compartments for each vineyard.ResultsOrganic farming slightly increases AMF abundance (spore density and mycorrhization rate). …”
