Bruce Bordelon Purdue University Wine Grape Team 2014 Oklahoma Grape Growers Workshop 2006 survey of grape varieties in Oklahoma: Vinifera 80%. Hybrids 15% American 7% Muscadines 1% Profiles and Challenges…continued… • V. vinifera cultivars are the most widely grown in Oklahoma…; however, observation and research has shown most European cultivars to be highly susceptible to cold damage. • More research needs to be conducted to elicit where European cultivars will do best in Oklahoma. • French-American hybrids are good alternatives due to their better cold tolerance, but have not been embraced by Oklahoma grape growers... Reasons for this bias likely include hybrid cultivars being perceived as lower quality than European cultivars, lack of knowledge of available hybrid cultivars, personal preference, and misinformation. Profiles and Challenges…continued… • The unpredictable continental climate of Oklahoma is one of the foremost obstacles for potential grape growers. • It is essential that appropriate site selection be done prior to planting. • Many locations in Oklahoma are unsuitable for most grapes, including hybrids and American grapes. • Growing grapes in Oklahoma is a risky endeavor and minimization of potential loss by consideration of cultivar and environmental interactions is paramount to ensure long-term success. • There are areas where some European cultivars may succeed. • Many hybrid and American grapes are better suited for most areas of Oklahoma than

  • Black Rot of Grape
    report on RPD No. 703 PLANT March 2001 DEPARTMENT OF CROP SCIENCES DISEASE UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS AT URBANA-CHAMPAIGN BLACK ROT OF GRAPE Black rot, caused by the fungus Guignardia bidwellii, is the most serious disease of grapes in Illinois. The disease is most destructive in warm and wet seasons. The fungus attacks all green parts of the vine—the leaves, shoots, leaf and fruit stems, tendrils, and fruit. The most damaging effect is to the fruit. When warm, muggy weather in the spring and summer is prolonged, unsprayed fruit on very susceptible varieties may become almost completely rotted by harvest time. SYMPTOMS Figure 1. Black rot lesions on upper surface of a grape leaf (R.C. Pearson). Leaves. Brown, circular lesions develop on the upper surface of the leaves starting in the late spring (Figure 1). Lesions vary from 2 to 10 mm in diameter. As lesions merge, they form irregular blotches that are reddish brown. The number of lesions per leaf varies from 1 to more than 100, depending on the severity of the disease. The center of the lesion turns tannish brown and is surrounded by a black margin. Within a few days, black spherical fungus fruiting bodies (pycnidia) form within the lesions. Pycinidia that are speck-sized are arranged in a definite ring just inside the margin of the lesion (Figure 2). Figure 2. Pycnidia of black rot fungus within a lesion (R.C. Pearson). Fruit. Berries are susceptible to the infection from bloom until they begin to ripen (reach 5 to 8 percent sugar). Infected berry first appears light brown in color.
