Grape Disease Control 2018
GRAPE DISEASE CONTROL, 2018 Bryan Hed, Department of Plant Pathology and Environmental Microbiology, Penn State University, Lake Erie Regional Grape Research and Extension Center, North East PA 16428 ([email protected]) As many of you know Wayne Wilcox, who has annually provided us with an incredibly thorough grape disease management update each spring, has retired. Filling Wayne's shoes is going to be a tall task to say the least, and the search for his replacement goes on. For now, I will attempt to provide a brief summary of some of the pertinent changes in grape disease control that I hope will be useful for grape growers in the 2018 season. For consistency, I'll roughly be using Wayne's format from his previous newsletter from June of 2017. FUNGICIDE CHANGES, NEWS, & REVIEWS Here is some new, and sort of new information regarding grape fungicides in 2018. First, Aprovia/Aprovia Top. The active ingredient in Aprovia is solatenol (benzovindiflupyr), and while it does not represent a new chemical class for us grape growers (succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor or SDHI) it is one of those 'new generation' SDHIs that Wayne spoke of last year. The SDHI fungicides belong to FRAC Group 7, which also includes chemistries in products like Endura and Pristine (boscalid) and Luna Experience (fluopyram). Aprovia was available for use in most states last year, but has now been labeled for use in New York as well. As a solo product, Aprovia is very effective for the control of powdery mildew as trials in NY over several years have shown. -

Matching Grape Varieties to Sites Are Hybrid Varieties Right for Oklahoma?
Matching Grape Varieties to Sites Are hybrid varieties right for Oklahoma? 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 -

University of Nebraska Viticulture Program Report to the Nebraska Grape and Wine Board
State Report Guidelines - Suggested Format/Content NE 1720 University of Nebraska Viticulture Program Report to the Nebraska Grape and Wine Board Paul E. Read, Professor of Horticulture/Viticulture Stephen J. Gamet, Viticulture Technician Benjamin A. Loseke, Laboratory Technician Email contact: [email protected] University of Nebraska Objectives: 1. Screen the viticulture characteristics of clones, cultivars and elite germplasm with significant potential throughout the USA. 2. Evaluate the viticultural and wine attributes of promising emerging cultivars and genotypes based on regional needs. Objectives 1&2 Accomplishments: Over 100 grapevine cultivars and selections have been evaluated over a period of 20 years by the University of Nebraska Viticulture Program. New selections from private breeders, the University of Minnesota and Cornell University have been tested for cold hardiness, tolerance to abiotic and biotic stresses, response to vineyard floor and trellis management systems, yield and fruit and wine quality and characteristics. New fertilizer and crop load adjustments are being explored in collaboration with UNL Food Science Department professionals (new faculty, Doctors Changmu Xu and Xiaoqing Xie). Additions for the 2020 part of these objectives involve new selections from North Dakota State University and from private breeders Ed Swanson and Max Hoffman. 3. Conduct explorations of new germplasm and lesser-known cultivars that may have economic potential for the Nebraska grape and wine industry. New selections from Cornell University, the University of Minnesota, North Dakota State University and private breeders (Ed Swanson, Cuthills Vineyards owner and Capitol View Winery winemaker, and Max Hoffman, winemaker at Schillingbridge winery) have been newly initiated. 4. Explore alternatives potentially helpful to the Nebraska grape and wine industry. -

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. -

Read, Extension Horticulturist and Professor of Horticulture Stephen J. Gamet, Research Technologist In recent years, interest in grape production and win- ery development has increased tremendously in Nebraska and the Midwest. This increased interest has led to a need for detailed information on vineyard establishment and commercial grape production. A successful winery must have a ready source of consistently high- quality fruit that is available every year. Fortunately for Nebraska growers, many locations through- out the state provide the essential resources of quality soil, water, and abundant sunshine. The experience of growers and University of Nebraska– Lincoln research have demon- strated that many sites are suitable for growing grapes of excellent quality that can be finished into wines of excep- tional quality. Do your homework: Before embarking upon the Figure 1. Sloping sites facilitate air drainage since cold air is heavier potentially risky venture of growing grapes for wine than warm air and flows downhill (air drainage). production, garner as much information as you can. Read trade journals and research articles. Attend grower work- shops and conferences, and visit other growers’ vineyards selection is probably the most frequent cause of vineyard to discuss these growers’ approaches and learn from their failure. In the Midwest, three main factors are critical to experiences.
