The conservation and characterization of grape (Vitis spp) genetic resources in germplasm banks have been the basis of its use in breeding programs that result in development of new cultivars. There are at least 10,000 grape cultivars kept in germplasm collection. The genetic diversity in 136 table grape accessions from the state of Bahia, Brazil, was evaluated. Continuous and discrete morphoagronomic traits were assessed. The clustering analysis by the Tocher otimization method resulted in 30 clusters (considering continuous morphoagronomic traits), and 9 clusters (taking into consideration multicategorical traits). There was no agreement between clusters obtained by both, continuous or discrete phenotypic descriptors, independent of the cluster method analysis used. A satisfactory genetic variability among the table grape accessions was observed.

O vírus A da videira (Grapevine virus A, GVA) e o vírus B da videira (Grapevirus virus B, GVB) estão associados à acanaladura do lenho de Kober ("Kober stem grooving") e ao fendilhamento cortical da videira ("grapevine corky bark"), respectivamente. Este trabalho descreve o uso de sondas moleculares de cDNA na detecção de isolados do GVA (GVA-SP) e do GVB (GVB-C-SP e GVB-I-SP) em videiras (Vitis spp.) e fumo (Nicotiana occidentalis). As sondas marcadas com digoxigenina foram produzidas por RT-PCR utilizando oligonucleotídeos específicos para os genes da proteína capsidial. Os RNA totais foram extraídos de 45 plantas de diversas variedades de videira e de 13 plantas de fumo inoculadas mecanicamente com o GVB. Os RNA extraídos das plantas infetadas, indexadas biologicamente, hibridizaram com as sondas, não se verificando reação com plantas sadias. Para confirmar os resultados de hibridização, foram também feitos testes de RT-PCR. A utilização de hibridização "dot-blot" com sondas de cDNA mostrou-se eficaz na detecção dos vírus com especificidade e sensibilidade, ressaltando-se que, preferencialmente, folhas maduras e ramos dormentes devem ser utilizados nos testes diagnósticos para o GVB e GVA, respectivamente.

Four interspecific grape hybrids (Vitis spp.) developed in Arkansas were evaluated for primary bud hardiness by differential thermal analysis. Buds from two locations were analyzed over 2 years for acclimation, midwinter hardiness, and deacclimation. In addition, effects of two training systems on cold hardiness of buds were evaluated in one location. The buds of the two genotypes with the greatest component of V. vinifera in their ancestry acclimated more slowly than did the other genotypes. Ultimate midwinter bud hardiness was greater in the genotypes possessing less V. vinifera than other parentage. No effect on cold hardiness due to training system was noted. No natural winter freeze damage was observed on any of the genotypes in the period of observation.

The purpose of this study, conducted in the years 2000 - 2002, was to identify fungi species colonizing apparently healthy canes and to investigate whether canes storage modify the quantitative and qualitative composition of these fungi. The plant material was collected from 5 commercial plantations growing in various regions of Poland, taking into consideration 8 cultivars which were the most frequently cultivated. From each plantation and cultivar 20 apparently healthy canes were randomly sampled in two terms: before storage - November/December (term I) and 3-4 months after storage - February/March (term II). The results showed that from asymptomatic canes 2746 isolates of fungi belonging to 23 species were obtained, but the majority of them origined from canes analysed after storage. It was found that <i>P. viticola</i> is able to live latently within grapevine tissue in Polish conditions because isolates of this fungus from visually healty canes the all studied plantations and terms were obtained. Among the other fungi species inhabiting grapevine canes <i>Alternaria alternata</i> and <i>Fusarium</i> spp. dominated. Moreover, both in term I and term II <i>Botrytis cinerea</i>, <i>Phoma</i> spp., <i>Epicoccum purpurascens</i> and <i>Cladosporium cladosporioides</i> were frequently isolated, whereas fungi from the genus <i>Acremonium</i> only in the term I. Each time isolates of <i>Trichoderma</i> spp. and <i>Gliocladium</i> spp. were also obtained. Inhabitation of grapevine canes by various fungi species shown in the present experiment indicate the danger of pathogens spread with propagation material on the new plantations.
