Abstract: | Plots in two vineyards in the Golan Heights, Israel were treated with six botryticides during three growing seasons with 3
applications per season. Applications of fenhexamid, pyrimethanil and cyprodinil + fludioxonil were effective, resulting in
52–65% and 53–63% mean reduction in grey mould incidence and severity, respectively. Carbendazim, fluazinam and iprodione
were ineffective or slightly effective. Five hundred and sixteen B. cinerea isolates were collected from infected berries or trapped from the air in the vineyards, and profiles of sensitivity to benomyl,
fenhexamid, fluazinam, fludioxonil, iprodione and pyrimethanil were established for each of the isolates based on a mycelial
growth test. Seventy-four percent of the isolates were sensitive to the six tested fungicides, and the other 26% of the isolates
were classified into 10 phenotypes characterized by resistance to one or more fungicides. Resistant isolates showed fitness
parameters similar or reduced in comparison to sensitive isolates. Resistance to benzimidazoles and to dicarboximides was
the most frequent (up to 25%) and apparently pre-existed in the populations tested. Increased frequency of benzimidazole resistance,
but not dicarboximide resistance, was observed following the 3 years of applications of the fungicides. High level resistance
to pyrimethanil was present at a frequency of about 2% in both vineyards in the first 2 years of the sampling survey and reached
10% in the third year at Site 2. A few isolates were resistant to fenhexamid or fludioxonil (0.8 or 0.2%, respectively). No
strong resistance to fluazinam was detected, although numerous, less sensitive isolates, presumably possessing multi-drug
resistance traits, were recovered at higher frequency from the plots treated with fluazinam than from the untreated plots. |
