Evaluation of the effectiveness of the fungicidal effect of drugs against pathogens of cultivated grapes (Vitis vinifera L.)

The Vitis vinifera L. cultural grape includes many varieties that are highly valued in winemaking and viticulture, as raw materials for the production of fresh and dried berries, for the production of wines. The fruits of cultural grapes play an important role in medicine, where they are used as a source of substances with high antioxidant activity. Grapes are often affected by phytopathogenic fungal infections. In recent years, a large number of reports have appeared in the literature about the acquisition of resistance of microorganisms to industrial pesticide preparations, which in turn leads to an increase in drug doses, the multiplicity of treatments and the accumulation of harmful substances in the environment and in the plants themselves. In this study, we evaluate the effectiveness of the fungicidal action of industrial preparations and plant extracts in relation to two native species of fungi (V1 and V2) isolated from the leaves of cultivated Vitis vinifera L. grapes, as well as against the phytopathogen Alternaria solani K-100054. Minimal inhibitory (MIC) and fungicidal concentrations (MFC) were detected for each sample. Ethanol extracts of plants showed low antimycotic activity in relation to fungi cultures isolated from grapes. Activity started from 0.0625%. The best result among industrial fungicides was shown by the drug “Maxim”, whose MIC values was 0.097 μg/mL, and the MFC varies between 3.125-12.5 μg/mL for pathogens V1 and V2, respectively.
