Among grapevine yellows, Bois noir (BN), associated with ' Phytoplasma solani', represents the biggest threat in the main wine-growing areas worldwide, causing significant losses in berry quality and yields. BN epidemiology involves multiple plant hosts and several insect vectors, making considerably complex the development of effective management strategies. Since application of insecticides on the grapevine canopy is not effective to manage vectors, BN management includes an integrated approach based on treatments to the canopy to make the plant more resistant to the pathogen and/or inhibit the vector feeding, and actions on reservoir plants to reduce possibilities that the vector reaches the grapevine and transmit the phytoplasma. Innovative sustainable strategies developed in the last twenty years to improve the BN management are reviewed and discussed.

The highly invasive field bindweed (Convolvulus arvensis), native to Europe and Asia, competes with crops, reduces yields, and acts as a reservoir for plant pathogens, increasing the potential for disease spread in agricultural systems (Sosnoskie et al. 2020; Wenninger et al. 2019).

Plant-pathogenic bacteria cause numerous diseases in host plants and can result in serious damage. Timely and accurate diagnostic techniques are, therefore, crucial. While advances in molecular techniques have led to diagnostic systems able to distinguish known plant pathogens at the species or strain level, systems covering larger categories are mostly lacking.

The composition of the juice from grape berries is at the basis of the definition of technological ripeness before harvest, historically evaluated from global sugar and acid contents. If many studies have contributed to the identification of other primary and secondary metabolites in whole berries, deepening knowledge about the chemical composition of the sole flesh of grape berries (i.e.

"Bois noir" disease associated with ' Phytoplasma solani' seriously compromises the production and survival of grapevines ( L.) in Europe. Understanding the plant response to phytoplasmas should help to improve disease control strategies.
