Abstract:Black Rot is a grapevine disease caused by the ascomycete Phyllosticta ampelicida. Neglected so far, this is developing into a pertinent problem in organic viticulture as resistant varieties are still lacking. Here, we follow cellular details of the infection process in the susceptible vinifera variety Müller‐Thurgau and screen the ancestral European wild grapevine (V. vinifera sylvestris) for resistance to Black Rot.
Using a standardized infection assay, we follow fungal development using LTSEM and quantify k… Show more
