| Sumario: | Timing of pruning may affect wound susceptibility to wood-invading fungi, such as those associated with grapevine trunk diseases (GTDs). This study aimed to determine the effect of pruning time on natural fungal infection in six vineyards in Galicia, Spain, during two periods of three months each, from November to February and from February to May by ITS2 high-throughput amplicon sequencing. Fungal microbiome composition did not differ significantly with year of sampling. Pruned canes harboured a core community of fungal species, which appeared to be independent of the infection period. Accumulated rainfall over 8 and 11 weeks after pruning positively correlated with the total fungal microbiome. A seasonal effect on GTD fungal infection was detected for most genera, with a higher percent detected after pruning in February (winter) as compared with that of pruning in November (mid-autumn). Early pruning is recommended to reduce the infections caused by GTD fungi in Galicia. |
