Metagenomic analysis of the effects of plant- and yeast-based formulations on the grapevine leaf microbiome of cv. ‘Touriga Franca’
These findings reinforce the potential of new treatments with putative fungicide effects to modulate the leaf microbiome, particularly bacterial communities, without disrupting the natural fungal balance. Thus highlight their relevance for developing sustainable viticultural practices aimed at improving plant protection.
