Presentation outline
• The annual cycle of vine growth & how it affects yield components
• Case study on the effects of node position on budbreak, fruitfulness, and fruit quality
• Causes of “blind” buds on cane pruned vines• Practices that promote budbreak and shoot
uniformity on canes

Yield Components
• Clusters per vine• Berries per cluster• Berry weight• Sugar per berry (raisin)

Reproductive cycle
• Two-year process• Year 1: Flower clusters are initiated and partially developed on microscopic shoots within buds on green growing shoots.
• Year 2: The pre-formed microscopic shoots emerge from dormant buds, flowers fully develop, and bloom, fruit set, berry growth and maturation occur.

Lateral (prompt) buds grow out theyear they are formed, resulting inlateral shoots

The dormant bud arises from the most basal node of a lateral shoot. Within the dormant node, an anlage develops into a shoot, tendril or cluster primordia in the spring.

Sunlight promotes cluster initiation and development, and bud survival
• The number and potential size of clusters on preformed shoots is positively correlated with temperature, light, and carbohydrate accumulation in early summer, when clusters are initiated.
• Shading reduces cluster number and potential size, and promotes bud necrosis (death).
• Pruning: sun canes vs shade canes

YEAR 2
![Page 22: Factors that affect fruitfulness and budbreak of cane-pruned vines](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062522/589f02451a28ab06368b6767/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Clusters initiated last spring will complete their growth this spring, as the preformed shoots emerge from the dormant nodes and growth to full size.
During this time cluster development can be directly affected by weather, insects, nutrition, and other factors.

Pollination
![Page 27: Factors that affect fruitfulness and budbreak of cane-pruned vines](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062522/589f02451a28ab06368b6767/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
The number of berries/cluster and berry size will depend in part on pollination success. Grapes do not require insect pollination, but poor weather and mineral nutrient imbalances can substantially reduce set.

Some causes of blind buds on canes
• Cane length and node position (apical dominance, correlative inhibition, trunk proximity)
• Insufficient vine capacity (too many nodes left after pruning)
• Insufficient winter chill• Overcropping, excessive water deficit stress,
and/or excessive shading, in previous season
![Page 39: Factors that affect fruitfulness and budbreak of cane-pruned vines](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062522/589f02451a28ab06368b6767/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
End-point principle

Trunk proximity principle (TPP)
![Page 41: Factors that affect fruitfulness and budbreak of cane-pruned vines](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062522/589f02451a28ab06368b6767/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

Root-shoot principle
![Page 44: Factors that affect fruitfulness and budbreak of cane-pruned vines](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062522/589f02451a28ab06368b6767/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Chilling hours• Chilling promotes dormancy release, but
requirement is relatively low; 50 to 400 hours < 45 F
• Can be difficult to determine if poor budbreak due to inadequate chill or correlative inhibition
• “…poor budburst in the mid-cane section of cane-pruned vines in cool maritime climates commonly attributed to lack of chill may be due to apical dominance”—The Grapevine, Iland et al., 2011
![Page 45: Factors that affect fruitfulness and budbreak of cane-pruned vines](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062522/589f02451a28ab06368b6767/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Historical accumulated chill hoursNovember 1 through February 28/29
Hours < 45 F Hours >32 F and <45 F

• Dormancy-breaking agents (e.g. Hydrogen cyanamide)
• Arching or “cracking” canes• Conservative cropping & pruning• Late season and postharvest irrigation• Canopy management (sunlight exposure
decreases bud necrosis, increases bud fruitfulness)
