Potassium fertilization to improve table grapevine response to drought stress

We study the effect of grapevine resiliency to drought stress in respect  to potassium irrigation. We grow our grapevine in giant lysimeter () and follow their transpiration rates under water deficit in respect to their potassium fertilization and hydraulic properties (turgor loss point, xylem vulnerability).
