6 COST Action FA 1303, Influence of grapevine pruning, Introduction Minimal pruning Spur pruning Fewer pruning wounds: Less wood necrosis? Fewer trunk pathogens? More pruning wounds: More wood necrosis? More trunk pathogens?

7 COST Action FA 1303, Influence of grapevine pruning, Material & Methods Location: Pech-Rouge (South East of France) Syrah (MS) et Mourvèdre (R) /140R ; 14 years old Minimal pruning since the year 4 and spur pruning since the year of planting Esca symptoms (wood and foliage) were recorded in 2013 Only non-leaf and non wood symptomatic vines were collected in December vines per treatment ; vines were cut lengthwise Mid-trunks were photographed for image analysis (proportion of wood necrosis) 4 wood samples were collected per vine for isolation and ITS-DNA sequencing, of for wood DNA extraction allowing SSCP profiles Results of isolation (number of wood chips that yielded a taxon) were analysed using different tools : some measures of relative abundance, and Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA) to identify specific pathogens and to examine the effects of cultivar, pruning system, trunk location, wood type

8 COST Action FA 1303, Influence of grapevine pruning, Material & Methods Necrosis was quantified by converting the image to black and white, and then calculating the percentage of trunk area occupied by black pixels as % necrosis.

9 COST Action FA 1303, Influence of grapevine pruning, Material & Methods Trunk location Top Close to canopy & more pruning wounds. Base Close to roots & soilborne spores of Esca pathogens, root pathogens. Close to graft union. Heartwood Wood type Sapwood Young xylem Typically not discolored Old xylem Always discolored Sometimes necrotic

10 COST Action FA 1303, Influence of grapevine pruning, Material & Methods 2 pruning systems 2 cultivars 2 trunk locations 2 wood types 8 replicate vines 128 wood samples wood chips

11 COST Action FA 1303, Influence of grapevine pruning, Material & Methods We recorded fungi isolated from each wood chip and thus were able to use this as a quantitative measure of colonization on a per sample basis. Subcultured fungi were initially grouped according to similar colony and spore morphology. Representative cultures of each group were sequenced and those representing the unique operational taxonomic units were referred to as taxa.

12 COST Action FA 1303, Influence of grapevine pruning, Results ANOVA. Each column is the mean of six vines. Error bars are 95% confidence limits. Means with overlapping error bars are not significantly different (Tukey s test, α=0.05, P 0.05).

13 COST Action FA 1303, Influence of grapevine pruning, Results Esca incidence (% vines with wood and/or foliar symptoms) 46% 16% 32% 12%

14 COST Action FA 1303, Influence of grapevine pruning, Results Community diversity : 88 taxa - 85 Ascomycetes, 3 Basidiomycetes Ascomycete taxa per order

15 COST Action FA 1303, Influence of grapevine pruning, Results 15 Most Frequently Isolated Taxa Trunk pathogens Wood-colonizing endophytes Botryosphaeria dieback Alternaria tenuissima Diplodia seriata Aureobasidium pullulans Neofusicoccum parvum Bionectria ochroleuca Esca Paraconiothyrium brasiliense Phaeomoniella chlamydospora Paraconiothyrium variabile Togninia minima Pestalotiopsis microspora Phomopsis dieback Diaporthe ampelina Unknown ecology Diaporthe foeniculina Phaeosphaeria sp. 1 Phaeosphaeria sp. 2 Plant pathogen Fusarium brachygibbosum

16 q D COST Action FA 1303, Influence of grapevine pruning, Results Community diversity Measures of abundance-based species diversity (e.g., species richness) converted to effective number of species (Hill numbers) q reflects sensitivity to rare species 0 D species abundance not accounted for equivalent to species richness 1 D all species weighted by their frequencies equivalent to exponential of Shannon entropy 2 D abundant species favored equivalent to inverse of Simpson concentration Chao et al., Unifying Species Diversity, Phylogenetic Diversity, Functional Diversity, and Related Similarity and Differentiation Measures Through Hill Numbers. Annual Review of Ecology, Evolution, and Systematics 45:

17 COST Action FA 1303, Influence of grapevine pruning, Results Comparing diversity between cultivars. Mourvedre - 63 taxa Syrah - 62 taxa 37 shared More taxa estimated from Mourvedre more singletons Similar diversity measures when taxa weighted by frequencies (q = 1) and when abundant taxa favored (q = 2). Singletons mean taxa recovered from only one wood piece

18 COST Action FA 1303, Influence of grapevine pruning, Results Comparing diversity between pruning systems Spur pruning - 66 taxa Minimal pruning - 58 taxa 36 shared Diversity measures higher in spur-pruned vines than in min-pruned vines

19 COST Action FA 1303, Influence of grapevine pruning, Results Canonical correspondence analysis

20 COST Action FA 1303, Influence of grapevine pruning, Results SSCP Profiles showed: Interaction cultivar/training system Syrah spur-pruned vines Interaction wood type/training system Heartwood of spur-pruned vines

21 Spur pruned vines Trunk pathogens Wood-colonizing endophytes Botryosphaeria dieback Alternaria tenuissima Diplodia seriata Aureobasidium pullulans Neofusicoccum parvum Bionectria ochroleuca Esca Paraconiothyrium brasiliense Phaeomoniella chlamydospora Paraconiothyrium variabile Togninia minima Pestalotiopsis microspora Phomopsis dieback Diaporthe ampelina Unknown ecology Diaporthe foeniculina Phaeosphaeria sp. 1 Phaeosphaeria sp. 2 Plant pathogen Fusarium brachygibbosum

22 Minimal pruned vines Trunk pathogens Wood-colonizing endophytes Botryosphaeria dieback Alternaria tenuissima Diplodia seriata Aureobasidium pullulans Neofusicoccum parvum Bionectria ochroleuca Esca Paraconiothyrium brasiliense Phaeomoniella chlamydospora Paraconiothyrium variabile Togninia minima Pestalotiopsis microspora Phomopsis dieback Diaporthe ampelina Unknown ecology Diaporthe foeniculina Phaeosphaeria sp. 1 Phaeosphaeria sp. 2 Plant pathogen Fusarium brachygibbosum

23 COST Action FA 1303, Influence of grapevine pruning, Conclusions Spur-pruned vines had more necrosis and higher disease incidence. Pruning system was more important than cultivar, in terms of fungal diversity. Spur-pruned vines had greater fungal diversity. Pruning system, cultivar and wood type were significant, in terms of composition of the fungal community. Spur-pruned vines had different, but not much more, trunk pathogens. A paper was submitted in Fungal Ecology (Travadon et al., )
