Tóm tắt

The effects of different levels of inoculum of Aspergillus carbonarius and time of inoculation on berry infection and the development of aspergillus bunch rot on grapevines (cv. Sultana) were studied under field conditions. Inflorescences at full bloom were inoculated with aqueous spore suspensions of A. carbonarius containing 0 or 1 × 106 spores mL−1 in 2004/05 and 0, 1 × 102 or 1 × 105 spores mL−1 in 2005/06. In both years, the incidence of infection in inoculated berries was significantly higher than in uninoculated berries. Incidence of infection in berries from veraison until harvest was higher than at earlier stages of bunch development (berry set to berries that were still hard and green). Inoculation of bunches at veraison did not significantly increase A. carbonarius infection prior to harvest, at harvest, 6 days after harvest or when berries were over‐ripe. Bunches inoculated at harvest did not significantly increase infection 6 days after harvest or when berries were over‐ripe. Aspergillus carbonarius was isolated more frequently from the pedicel end (53·1%) than from the middle section (37·5%) and distal end (35·0%) of berries that were inoculated with 105 spores mL−1.
