International audience. Grapevine is a crop of global economic importance which is often cultivated in dry Mediterranean climates. In the context of climatic change, periods of drought could increase and become more intense. Growers will face increasing pressure to increase irrigation efficiently and/or adopt new grapevine varieties with increased drought resistance and water use efficiency. Adapting viticulture to these challenges requires an improved understanding of how grapevines behave under drought to enable sustainable management strategies and develop new varieties and rootstocks. This chapter summarizes our current understanding of the changes in physiology, signaling, metabolism, and gene expression that mediate grapevine’s response and adaptation to drought.
