Chemical process to improve natural grapevine-cane extract effectivity against powdery mildew and grey mould

Biological control of the grapevine diseases 'grey mold' and 'powdery mildew' by Bacillus B27 and B29 strains.

Uncinula necator and Botrytis cinerea are the most destructive pathogens of the grapevine in Tunisia and elsewhere. We used two strains of Bacillus subtilis group, B27 and B29 to control powdery mildew and the grey mold disease of the grapevine. Green house experiments showed that B29 and B27 strains of the bacteria efficiently reduced the severity of powdery mildew up to 50% and 60%, respectiv...

Fenhexamid Resistance in the Botrytis Species Complex, Responsible for Grey Mould Disease

The three major fungal pests of grapevine, powdery and downy mildew and grey mould are mostly controlled through the application of fungicides. Some of those are particularly active against the grey mould agent Botrytis cinerea. The panel of fungicides authorized in France comprise since many years anilinopyrimidines, benzimidazoles, dithiocarbamates, dicarboximides, phenylpyrroles and pyridina...

Chemical suppressors of mlo-mediated powdery mildew resistance

Loss-of-function of barley mildew locus o (Mlo) confers durable broad-spectrum penetration resistance to the barley powdery mildew pathogen, Blumeria graminis f. sp. hordei (Bgh). Given the importance of mlo mutants in agriculture, surprisingly few molecular components have been identified to be required for this type of resistance in barley. With the aim to identify novel cellular factors cont...

A Formally Designed Integrated Pest Management Decision Process against Grapevine Powdery and Downy Mildews

GrapeMilDeWS is an expert-based approach for the integrated pest management (IPM) of two of the major pathogens of grapevine (Vitis vinifera): Erysiphe necator which causes powdery mildew and Plasmopara viticola which causes downy mildew. GrapeMilDeWS has been designed and tested by a team of phytopathologists. It is presented here as a formal model in Statechart. We argue that formal modelling...
