Effects of inter-row cover crop termination strategy on grapevine performance and mycorrhizal activity under contrasting seasonal conditions

In a 2026 study published in Field Crops Research based on Mediterranean rainfed vineyards, the authors found that roller-crimping cover crops improved soil cover, vine water status, yield (in wetter conditions), and mycorrhizal colonization without affecting grape quality, while seasonal climate was the dominant driver of fungal diversity.
