Viticulture in Brazil has been expanding in the last ten years. Both the area planted to vines and productivity increased during this period. In most grape regions, high disease severities of downy mildew (Plamospara viticola) and rust (Phakposora euvitis) are observed in vines when climatic conditions are favourable to the development of pathogens. The control of these diseases is basica…
Downy mildew caused by Plasmopara viticola is the most destructive disease of Vitis vinifera worldwide. Grapevine breeding programs have introgressed P. viticola-resistant traits into cultivated V. vinifera genotypes and launched interspecific hybrids with resistance against downy mildew. Defense mechanisms of grapevine to P. viticola comprise pre-existing chemical defenses and induce str…
Grapevine is cultivated in more than 77.500 ha in Brazil. Grapevine cultivation is an important agricultural activity in the southern, northeastern and southeastern regions of the country. However, the excessive use of fungicides for disease control in grapevine is still an obstacle to production of grapes with high quality. Fungicides are applied even without the actual damage quantifica…
