The Science of Grapevines

The Science of Grapevines, 3rd Edition, is a textbook that introduces the anatomy, physical organ structures, and biological functions of cultivated grapevines. The volume provides a foundational framework for understanding how grapevines interact with their surrounding environments.

Drawing on discoveries across other plant species, the text examines the developmental and physiological processes that govern grapevine form and function. It connects fundamental biological concepts to practical production systems and scientific research.

The book also addresses vineyard management by examining how cultural decisions influence vine development. Readers learn how biological principles can guide efforts to evaluate management actions and maintain sustainable grape production.
