Popis: Grapevine cultivars Cabernet Sauvignon (susceptible to Eutypa dieback), and Merlot (tolerant), were pruned three times during the dormant season (mid-December, mid-January and mid-February) and wounds on the 1-year-old canes were inoculated weekly with ascospores of Eutypa lata after pruning. No differences in susceptibility to infection were observed between cultivars, although in the vineyard they differed in symptom expression. Infection by E. lata varied with pruning date and the age of the pruning wound, and was higher and of longer duration with early pruning (December). At low temperature, infection of the pruning wounds by E. lata was increased, whereas the growth of other microorganisms was reduced. Moderate temperatures encouraged the growth of other microorganisms, notably Rhodotorula sp. This natural colonizer of grapevine pruning wounds was able to reduce the infection capacity of E. lata. It was more effective when inoculation with E. lata was carried out with low numbers of ascospores and when it was delayed until 14 days after application of the wound colonizer, infection being reduced by 95–100%.
