Genetically Engineered Grape for Disease and Stress Tolerance

  • Chapter
Molecular Biology & Biotechnology of the Grapevine

Abstract

In 1936, Negrul (1936) suggested a concept for the distribution of forms of immunity in Vitis, in the chapter “Variation and Inheritance of Immunity” of his book “The Genetic Basis of Grape Breeding”. The idea was based on conclusions made previously by Planchon and Viala and reconfirmed by his own studies. This concept considered a direct dependency of the existing biodiversity and development of forms of immunity in Vitis, with the center of geographical distribution of the major pathogens and pests of grape. The most common diseases — powdery mildew (Uncinula necator) and downy mildew (Plasmopara viticola); the most damaging pests — phylloxera (Dactulosphaira vitifoliae Fitch) emerged after exploration of the continent of America, and Old World grape varieties were introduced into the New World and vice versa.
