Outline
Problem and economical impactPierce's disease – How grapevines are affected?What is the disease mechanism?Why chemistry is so important?“Calcium Bridging” hypothesis, based on Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy results.Latest research resultsConclusion
3
The wine industry: California
There are more than 2,800 wineries in California
The California wine industry has an annual impact of $51.8 billion on the state's economy, and an economic impact of $125.3 billion on the U.S. economy
4
The wine industry: Florida
Florida has a $5 million viticulture industry.Number of Wineries: 33
Vitis rotundifoliaMuscadine grapes
Why is Florida Important?
5
American grapes vs. European grapes
V. rotundifolia. “Muscadines”, “American grape”
“native American grapes”
V. vinifera. "Old world grape", "European grape“
“True grapes”

Muscadine Florida Wines: Noble red and Carlos

Muscadine grapevines are very “tolerant” to Pierce's disease
Some grape cultivars are very susceptible, usually dying within two years.
Leaf Scorching

Typical Symptoms of Pierce`s Disease
Disease Mechanism
31
Pierce`s Disease of Grapevines: Lesion of leaf scorched areas accumulate silicon.This is the first time that PD symptoms are associated silicon accumulation.

Silicon accumulation is severely affected grapevine leaves
32
Is there a difference between healthy and diseased plant tissue?

Silicon accumulation is severely affected grapevine leavesReduces drought stress
34
Silicon accumulation questions
•How general is this response?
•What happens to PD symptoms in plants exposed tocalcium silicates?
Silicon helps plants to cope with drought.
