A framework map from grapevine V3125 (Vitis vinifera ‘Schiava grossa’?×?‘Riesling’)?×?rootstock cultivar ‘B?rner’ (Vitis riparia?×?Vitis cinerea) to localize genetic determinants of phylloxera root resistance

Grapevine rootstock cultivar ‘B?rner’ is a hybrid of Vitis riparia and Vitis cinerea Arnold that shows high resistance to phylloxera (Daktulosphaira vitifoliae Fitch). To localize the determinants of phylloxera root resistance, the susceptible grapevine V3125 (Vitis vinifera ‘Schiava grossa’ × ‘Riesling’) was crossed to ‘B?rner’. Genetic framework maps were built from the progeny. 235 microsatellite markers were placed on the integrated parental map. They cover 1,155.98 cM on 19 linkage groups with an average marker distance of 4.8 cM. Phylloxera resistance was scored by counting nodosities after inoculation of the root system. Progeny plants were triplicated and experimentally infected in 2 years. A scan of the genetic maps indicated a quantitative trait locus on linkage group 13. This region was targeted by six microsatellite-type markers newly developed from the V. vinifera model genome sequence. Two of these appear closely linked to the trait, and can be useful for marker-assisted breeding.     

Local and systemic mycorrhiza-induced protection against the ectoparasitic nematode Xiphinema index involves priming of defence gene responses in grapevine

The ectoparasitic dagger nematode (Xiphinema index), vector of Grapevine fanleaf virus (GFLV), provokes gall formation and can cause severe damage to the root system of grapevines. Mycorrhiza formation by Glomus (syn. Rhizophagus) intraradices BEG141 reduced both gall formation on roots of the grapevine rootstock SO4 (Vitis berlandieri×V. riparia) and nematode number in the surrounding soil. Suppressive effects increased with time and were greater when the nematode was post-inoculated rather than co-inoculated with the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus. Using a split-root system, decreased X. index development was shown in mycorrhizal and non-mycorrhizal parts of mycorrhizal root systems, indicating that both local and systemic induced bioprotection mechanisms were active against the ectoparasitic nematode. Expression analyses of ESTs (expressed sequence tags) generated in an SSH (subtractive suppressive hybridization) library, representing plant genes up-regulated during mycorrhiza-induced control of X. index, and of described grapevine defence genes showed activation of chitinase 1b, pathogenesis-related 10, glutathione S-transferase, stilbene synthase 1, 5-enolpyruvyl shikimate-3-phosphate synthase, and a heat shock proein 70-interacting protein in association with the observed local and/or systemic induced bioprotection against the nematode. Overall, the data suggest priming of grapevine defence responses by the AM fungus and transmission of a plant-mediated signal to non-mycorrhizal tissues. Grapevine gene responses during AM-induced local and systemic bioprotection against X. index point to biological processes that are related either to direct effects on the nematode or to protection against nematode-imposed stress to maintain root tissue integrity.     

Jasmonic acid induced resistance in grapevines to a root and leaf feeder

We investigated the effects of induced resistance to the folivore Pacific spider mite, Tetranychus pacificus McGregor (Acari: Tetranychidae), as well as the root-feeding grape phylloxera Daktulosphaira vitifoliae (Fitch) (Homoptera: Phylloxeridae) in grapevines using exogenous applications of the natural plant inducer, jasmonic acid. Foliar jasmonic acid application at concentrations that caused no phytotoxicity significantly reduced the performance of both herbivores. There were less than half as many eggs produced by spider mites feeding on the induced leaves compared with control grapevine leaves. Induction reduced the numbers of phylloxera eggs and nymphal instars by approximately threefold and twofold, respectively, on induced compared with control grapevine roots. The negative demographic effects of jasmonic acid application appeared to be caused by changes in fecundity for the Pacific spider mite, and possibly changes in development rate and fecundity for grape phylloxera.     

Seasonal capacity of attached and detached vineyard roots to support grape phylloxera (Homoptera: Phylloxeridae)

Field experiments were conducted to evaluate population densities and survival, developmental rate, and fecundity of grape phylloxera, Daktulosphaira vitifoliae (Fitch), as influenced by root attachment or detachment from mature, field-grown, Vitis vinifera L. grapevines through the growing season. Experiments were performed using artificial infestations of California biotype A grape phylloxera. Thirty-day bioassays on attached- and detached-roots were repeated monthly from May to September in 1997 (cultivar 'Carignane') and April to September in 1998 (cultivar 'Thompson Seedless'). The bioassays showed that attached roots had lower population densities than detached roots in all months of both years. Densities varied by month, tending to be higher in spring than in summer. Of the population parameters studied, survival was most influenced by attachment condition, being higher on detached than on attached roots by up to 25-fold. These results imply the importance of vine-related mortality factors to grape phylloxera population density. Influence of root attachment condition on developmental rate and fecundity was not uniform across bioassay months for either year; however, in the four out of 21 assays where there was a significant difference it favored detached roots by twofold. Fruit harvest resulted in higher survival in the July assay but not for assays in August and September; however, neither developmental rate nor fecundity was affected by harvest in any ofthe assays. We conclude that mortality rather than nutritional factors are most limiting for field populations on susceptible vines. This work suggests that detachment of roots as occurs with root girdling by root pathogens may increase grape phylloxera populations on infested, susceptible vines. These results imply that excised root bioassays over-estimate grape phylloxera virulence and underestimate rootstock resistance.

【目的】水杨酸和茉莉酸在植物诱导防御虫害反应中发挥着重要作用。本研究旨在探讨水杨酸和茉莉酸诱导葡萄对根瘤蚜的抗性。【方法】以盆栽巨峰为试材,在接种葡萄根瘤蚜Daktulosphaira vitifoliae的同时喷施水杨酸和茉莉酸,测定和评估了对根瘤蚜生长发育及产卵量的影响,以及对葡萄根系抗氧化相关酶［过氧化物酶(POD)和过氧化氢酶(CAT）］活性、丙二醛（MDA）含量、新梢生长量及光合速率的影响。【结果】水杨酸和茉莉酸诱导处理显著降低了根瘤蚜卵量及下代1,2龄若蚜总数,接种35 d后根瘤蚜的产卵量分别减少了41.35％和50.00％,1龄和2龄若蚜总数分别减少了42.31％和50.00％;根瘤蚜侵染后根系中POD和CAT活性均呈先升高后降低的趋势,且水杨酸和茉莉酸诱导处理在各测定时期均高于仅接种根瘤蚜处理;水杨酸和茉莉酸处理的根系中MDA含量在各测定时期均低于仅接种根瘤蚜处理;水杨酸和茉莉酸处理降低了根瘤蚜侵染对植株地上部生长及光合的抑制。接种处理后第30天,仅接种根瘤蚜处理的植株地上部生长量减少了48.11%,光合速率降低了58.77％,而水杨酸和茉莉酸处理后的新梢生长量分别减少了31.57％和25.71％,光合速率分别降低了32.89％和24.67％。【结论】叶片喷洒茉莉酸和水杨酸能够降低根瘤蚜种群密度,并提高葡萄根系活性氧清除能力和防御酶活性,缓解树势衰退。     

根瘤蚜侵染不同抗性葡萄对根结形成及植株营养消耗的影响

为探讨不同抗性水平的葡萄砧木和品种被葡萄根瘤蚜Daktulosphaira vitifoliae Fitch侵染形成根结的状况及其对植株营养消耗的影响,采用盆栽方式接种根瘤蚜,测定了葡萄根结数量、质量及碳水化合物和脯氨酸含量等指标。结果表明：砧木5BB,1103P,SO4,3309C,101-14Mgt被根瘤蚜侵染后均不形成根结;140Ru,Lot和110R仅形成少量根结而不能形成根瘤;砧木贝达、栽培品种赤霞珠、巨峰和达米娜不仅能够形成根结和根瘤,而且根系腐烂程度严重。越敏感的品种形成的根结数量和体积越大,达米娜、巨峰和赤霞珠根结重占根重比例分别高达40.02％,37.08％和35.36％,百个根结质量分别是140Ru的4.4,3.5和433倍。3个形成根结的砧木的枝条生长量平均减少16.5％,而4个高感品种的生长量平均减少43％。根结质量与根结内的营养积聚呈正相关,其中根结质量与淀粉含量增加量的相关系数达0.94,与可溶性糖含量增加量的相关系数达0.81,与游离脯氨酸含量增加量的相关系数达0.93。     

Performance of Hungarian phylloxera strains on Vitis riparia rootstocks

Abstract: Vitis riparia and other rootstocks were used in excised root- and plantlet culture-bioassays to test the performance of Hungarian colonies of phylloxera. Phylloxera colonies from America and Germany were used as comparisons. The Hungarian colonies had a higher level of performance on V. riparia in contrast with the American and German colonies. Plantlet assays found the performance of a Hungarian strain on V. riparia equivalent to that on Vitis vinifera , AXR#1 and 41B root types. In contrast, the American colonies did not survive on V. riparia . Collections of Hungarian gallicole colonies from cultivated and escaped rootstock leaves were assayed using excised roots of the rootstock Teleki 5C. Results indicated that performance of phylloxera collected from feral rootstocks was higher than performance of colonies collected from cultivated rootstock leaves. Lastly, when the attached roots of field-grown V. riparia vines were damaged by girdling, phylloxera performance was much higher than on undamaged roots, suggesting cultural conditions can increase the risk of related vine damage. These laboratory and field results show that V. riparia is capable of supporting phylloxera on its roots. Escaped, feral vines may select for phylloxera with increased virulence on roots. This is of significance in regions such as Hungary where feral rootstock is common.

Expression pattern, genomic structure, and promoter analysis of the gene encoding stilbene synthase from Chinese wild Vitis pseudoreticulata

The gene encoding stilbene synthase (STS) plays a central role in many biochemical and physiological actions, and its metabolite resveratrol possesses broad-spectrum resistance to pathogens, as well as diverse pharmacological properties, notably an anticancer effect. Here, we report the expression analysis of the gene encoding STS and its promoter function from a powdery mildew (PM)-resistant Chinese wild Vitis pseudoreticulata, and compare it with two PM-susceptible cultivated grapevines, Vitis vinifera cvs. Carignane and Thompson Seedless. We show an unusual expression pattern of STS in V. pseudoreticulata, which differs markedly from that of the cultivated species. Sequence comparisons reveal that the genomic DNA sequences encoding STS in the three grapevines are highly conserved, but a novel residue mutation within the key motif of STS is solely present in V. pseudoreticulata. Moreover, the STS promoter in V. pseudoreticulata displays a significantly different structure from that found in the two V. vinifera. The three promoter-driven GUS differential expression patterns in transformed tobacco plants induced with Alternaria alternata, methyl jasmonate, and wounding indicated that the structurally different STS promoter of V. pseudoreticulata is responsible for its specific regulatory function. We also demonstrate that the expression of STS genes from their native promoters are functional in transformed tobacco and retain pathogen inducibility. Importantly, the genomic DNA-2 of V. pseudoreticulata under its native promoter shows good induction and the maximum level of resveratrol content. These findings further our understanding of the regulation of STS expression in a resistant grapevine and provide a new pathogen-inducible promoter system for the genetic improvement of plant disease resistance.     

Historical origins and genetic diversity of wine grapes

The genomic resources that are available to the grapevine research community have increased enormously during the past five years, in parallel with a renewed interest in grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) germplasm resources and analysis of genetic diversity in grapes. Genetic variation, either natural or induced, is invaluable for crop improvement and understanding gene function, and the same is true for the grapevine. The history and vineyard cultural practices have largely determined the genetic diversity that exists today in grapevines. In this article, we provide a synopsis of what is known about the origin and genetics of grapes and how molecular genetics is helping us understand more about this plant: its evolution, historical development, genetic diversity and potential for genetic improvement.     

Elicitor and resistance-inducing activities of beta-1,4 cellodextrins in grapevine, comparison with beta-1,3 glucans and alpha-1,4 oligogalacturonides

Cellodextrins (CD), water-soluble derivatives of cellulose composed of beta-1,4 glucoside residues, have been shown to induce a variety of defence responses in grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) cells. The larger oligomers of CD rapidly induced transient generation of H2O2 and elevation in free cytosolic calcium, followed by a differential expression of genes encoding key enzymes of the phenylpropanoid pathway and pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins as well as stimulation of chitinase and beta-1,3 glucanase activities. Most of these defence reactions were also induced by linear beta-1,3 glucans (betaGlu) and alpha-1,4 oligogalacturonides (OGA) of different degree of polymerization (DP), but the intensity of some reactions induced by CD was different when compared with betaGlu and OGA effects. Moreover, desensitization assays using H2O2 production showed that cells treated with CD remained fully responsive to a second application of OGA, suggesting a different mode of perception of these oligosaccharides by grape cells. None of CD, betaGlu, or OGA induced HSR gene expression nor did they induce cell death. In accordance with elicitor activity in grapevine cells, CD-incubated leaves challenged with Botrytis cinerea also resulted in a significant reduction of the disease. Data suggest that CD could operate via other distinct reaction pathways than betaGlu and OGA. They also highlight the requirement of a specific DP for each oligosaccharide to induce the defence response.
