First Report of Aspergillus Vine Canker of Table Grapes Caused by Aspergillus niger

A vine canker was first observed in the San Joaquin Valley, CA, in fall 1989, on exceptionally vigorous 1-year-old cv. Redglobe vines (Vitis vinifera) when vines were trained up the stakes. Since 1989, the same canker symptoms have been observed in Tulare, Kern, Fresno, and Riverside (Coachella Vall...

520 |a A vine canker was first observed in the San Joaquin Valley, CA, in fall 1989, on exceptionally vigorous 1-year-old cv. Redglobe vines (Vitis vinifera) when vines were trained up the stakes. Since 1989, the same canker symptoms have been observed in Tulare, Kern, Fresno, and Riverside (Coachella Valley, CA) counties on cv. Redglobe, Crimson Seedless, Chardonnay, and Grenache vines. In affected vineyards, the disease resulted in the retraining of 2 to 6.1% of vines the following spring, using a shoot originating from below the canker. In a sample of 54 infected vines collected in 1997, 65% of cankers were found at the branching (crotch) of the vine, 24% along the shoot, or both (11%). All infections started through wounds caused by removing lateral shoots or leaves when the vine was topped to form cordons or possibly through growth cracks that occur on rapidly growing 1-year-old shoots. The first symptoms usually appear in August as red pinhead-size drops of sap on the surface of discolored tissue. By October to November, the canopies of vines girdled by the canker prematurely display fall colors and are very distinct from healthy vines. The trunk is slightly swollen and spongy where the canker occurs. Internal canker tissue is discolored and dead. Black spores are abundant within the canker, on the surface of the canker, or both. Callous tissue is often associated with the canker as the vine attempts to repair the damage with new tissue. Canker length can range from 3.5 to 26.5 cm (average 7.0 cm) and can affect the shoot's cross section from 0.4 cm to completely girdling the shoot (up to 9.0 cm in circumference). Isolations from cankers or black sporulation inside the canker on acidified potato dextrose agar (APDA) consistently yielded Aspergillus niger van Tiegh. Six well-matured current-season canes of cv. Redglobe in an experimental vineyard at Kearney Agricultural Center were inoculated by inserting a 7-mm plug of mycelium from actively growing cultures on APDA in a cut made with a 7-mm cork borer or by brushing spores of the culture over the surface of six canes wounded with a sterile razor. Six canes were inoculated with a 7-mm plug of APDA and used as noninoculated controls. Inoculated sites were sealed with Parafilm to avoid dehydration. Inoculation of grapevines with A. niger resulted in cankers similar to those observed in commercial vineyards 5 months after inoculation. Cankers ranged from 2.4 to 4.2 cm for mycelial-plug inoculation (100% of canes infected) and 2.3 to 7.3 cm for spore-brushing inoculation (67% infected). Noninoculated control canes were not infected. In another experiment, inoculation of 10 canes each with A. niger on 17 May, 10 June, 2 July, 21 July, and 16 August resulted in 50, 60, 90, 90, and 100% canker formation, respectively, 5 to 8 months after inoculation, suggesting summer inoculations were more effective than spring inoculations. Reisolation from infected canes on APDA revealed A. niger. Aspergillus species in section Nigri have been reported to be among the pathogens involved in the bunch rot complex (1,2), but to our knowledge, this is the first report of A. niger causing a serious canker of vigorously growing grape vines.
