SR25007Copper sulfate causes greater toxicity and growth inhibition in grapevine seedlings compared to copper chloride in different vineyard soils


Understanding the factors influencing copper toxicity is essential for safe grape production amid increasing copper accumulation in vineyards. This study investigated how different soils and copper salts and concentrations influence copper toxicity in vineyard soils and the effects on vine growth – our findings reveal that soil type and type of copper salt significantly influence copper toxicity, affecting vine safety and production. These findings help in assessing environmental risks of copper and designing tailored remediation strategies.
