Competition Between <i>Plasmopara viticola</i> Clade <i>riparia</i> and Clade <i>aestivalis</i>: A Race to Lead Grape Downy Mildew Epidemics
Bibliographic record
Abstract
There is evidence of five clades of Plasmopara viticola in the world. Only two clades, riparia and aestivalis, have been identified as responsible for downy mildew epidemics in Quebec, Canada. It was reported in 2021 that epidemics caused by clade riparia start 2 or 3 weeks before those caused by clade aestivalis and that clade aestivalis was more aggressive than clade riparia. The objective of this work was to study the competition between P. viticola clade riparia (A) and clade aestivalis (B) and to compare the aggressiveness of both clades in mono- and coinfection situations. Suspensions of sporangia from both clades with six percentage combinations (AB 100-0; AB 89-11; AB 74-26; AB 46-54; AB 23-77; and AB 0-100) were inoculated on leaf discs (cultivar Vidal), and three other combinations (AB 88-12; AB 68-32; and AB 47-53) were inoculated on living leaves of grape plants (cultivar Vidal). Then, sporangium production, expressed as the percentage of sporangia produced by each clade, was estimated on leaf discs after eight cycles of infection-sporulation and then validated on living grape leaves after five cycles. The aggressiveness of clades in monoinfection situations on leaf discs was compared with that in coinfection situations. The results show that the percentage of sporangia produced by clade aestivalis increases with the infection-sporulation cycle while that produced by clade riparia decreases. The area under the sporangium production progress curve (AUSPPC) of clade aestivalis was significantly higher than that of clade riparia. The aggressiveness of P. viticola clades riparia and aestivalis in coinfection situations was different from that in monoinfection situations and was strongly influenced by the percentage of each clade in competition. These results suggest that, on the grapevine cultivar Vidal, P. viticola clade aestivalis is more competitive than clade riparia and that the percentage of each clade present in the vineyard should be considered for management of downy mildew.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
